Autumn is very artsy. The colors, the lights, the paintings the season creates on its canvas🍁
When summer turns into autumn, we appreciate every single glorious day and every little bit of sunshine🌞
This photo revealed itself to me yesterday while fixing the reverse light of the car with my dad by their place. They live in assisted living now and the park around the building is beautiful, especially in autumn. The glorious rays of the sun broke through the branches of the tree – the Tree of Life – as I looked up from working on the car. I tried to capture this moment in a photograph as well as in my mind and heart🌳❤️
