I love autumn colours. This year, the colour of leaves on trees began to change long before the temperature began to drop. I saw many red leaves while the temperature was still in the 80s, which is most unusual. The temperature on the day I took this picture was at least 80F. Photo taken by Gerda Grice (Canada) - Nature

This is a picture of my four year old daughter. She was a miracle to me, as I was told I would never have children.
