I had no idea when I got out of bed this morning what I would be able to come up with for the November Photo a Day today. I was hoping it would snow or rain. The wind has been blowing for 24 hours straight, which usually means a storm is on its way.Alas, all was clear.
But I noticed the wind had pulled most of the leaves off the trees. So as per suggested, I waited for the sun to come up and took some pictures of our neighbors tree.
Imagine if you will, my large self in a pair of bright yellow Sponge Bob Square Pants pajamas and fuchsia tennis shoes, a camera slung about my neck, taking pictures of a tree while school children walk by on their way to class.
But the light was wonderful and I ended up taking so many good photos I decided to post more than one. Feel free to tell me which one you think I should call my “official” photo of the day for November 3.
My son followed me out, and he was wearing a bright orange coat, so I had him pose against the tree because I love the contrast of his soft skin against the rough bark.
I have also been challenged to take a picture of a child eating today. But all the youngsters are gone to school now, so I will try to take some shots of food consumption after school.

I really like the leaf hanging on the bare tree. Something poetic about it.
Love the lighting and DOF on the leaf pics, but the one of your son is fab!
LOL! really getting a mental image of the sb pants and fuschia tennies. love that shot of your son. so innocent.
Love the picture of you ds. Too cute! But like the rest too. :)
Awesome photos all of them! I like the photo of your son alot!
i like the one of your son the best...great colors! all of them
That last one with just the one maple leaf is very cool!
All of these pictures are great! Hard to pick just one!
I think I'd go with the single leaf also....this is hard - they are all great!
I like them all, but I am partial to the picture with your son, as I really like people photos! I also love the light on the leaves in the first photo! Leaves are still green here!

cool photos. they just scream "fall!" don't they? I'd love to see the one of your son and the tree in B/W. the texture contrast will really show itself well.

They're all great! I would like to see a pic of you out with the spongebobs and fushia shoes! :)
These look clear enough to reach out and touch one! Beautiful! The shot of your son is wonderful. But, now about these PJ pants... we need to talk! ;)

Beautiful colors
I love the one of your son!
They are all lovely! I like the photo of your son a lot... he's a real cutie. And I LOLed at the thought of you out snapping pics in your jammies.
Love them! they look awesome! and the pic of your ds is too cute!
the photo of your darling son wins for photo of today, in my humble opinion, that is! the trees are nice but he is adorable! hugs, Cindy Lee
I think all of these photos are fabulous.
I love how your November photos actually reflect the time of year...mine are so scattered and do not relate to fall at all...I like the top one actually (but my fave is the one of your son!)
Isn't hard to pick just ONE!!!
Those are all AWESOME!!! At least we should all be getting great pics to scrap..lol
The single leaf is the best as far as composition goes. Like Sheila Ithink it is poetic. But Adam is beyond poetic and I too like people in photos.
