tree watching leads to self portraiting

Saturday I went to the mountain to look at the changing leaves and I don't remember ever seeing such vivid fall colors as I did that day. I probably have but it's been a really long time. We ended up in the grave yard where the trees there are just breathtaking! I was snapping away and trying to figure out what kind of self portrait I would do for the "upside down" theme this month and was like "if I just set the timer, lay the camera on the ground here, and stand like this...yeah that would totally work!" And I think it turned out well. I love the color of the leaves. That tree was huge! How many more short sentences can I make? So here is the shot:



and here are some other shots of the day:
