Fall aster
New England Asters finished blooming a few weeks back, a burst of color as the leaves started to turn. I usually prefer soft light for flowers, but for this view I used full late afternoon sun.

Beautiful!
I need that splash of colour on this rainy and grey day.
Thanks!
Wonderful!
Aww, so gorgeous!
striking colors 🙂
Such blurry contrast, like a dream.
