It was a gorgeous tree, ablaze with that red color, last fall in southern Illinois, Crystal.
Cynthia, I don't paint trees often - I seem to have a mental block about how to render them without overdoing it - but I could give it a try...but there's no crow in it! ha ha
Here's the word Rhonda, it is MERCURICHROME. Do you remember that from childhood when you scraped a knee one of your parents applied this colorful mercurichrome as antiseptic. Another name for it is Merthiolate. That's what these leaves look like to me. I hated the sting of it but love these leaves.
Glad you all enjoyed this one. It was taken during a walk through the Cedarhurst grounds when I went to see Carol Carter's show - a lovely time of year and a great showing of her swimmers (if you haven't seen these in person, you should - bit, bold, beautiful figures).
Carol, my grandmother put something even worse on us = gentian violet. It was deep purple and dried like Japanese Beetle wings - irridescent and green and gold and purple - we didn't tell her about boo-boos too often! ha ha

Like sunsets, autumn trees are really best left up to God.
