You know it is fall, if you pull in your driveway after a long return trip from Maine and the road is completely covered with leaves. I skip to show you a picture about this mess (I didn't even make one ;-)  ). You know it is fall after you wake up the next morning and the bird bath is covered with a thin ice crystal that looks like a Christmas ornament, a safe sign for the first night frost. And you know it is fall when at the same time the early morning sun back-lights the leaves of the grapevine on the balcony.

I love the quality of light that autumn brings us and I thought I share this with you before I may post a few more images from our travels to the coast of Maine. I hope you enjoy...
