Among the things I did to amuse myself during my (very cold) few days at the lake in early September while Rick was still on his cycling journey, was go through old photos on my computer and take a look at some I'd forgotten. I wanted to finish this post during my most recent visit -- but with no computer, it had to wait. But now, the first of several collections to pop up here in the future -- "Fall Favorites."

...enjoy the glory of the season.
Good photographers become great photographers in the fall. Mother Earth sure likes to show off this time of the year, doesn't she. Looking forward to your next batch of fall photos.
So many beautiful photos there of lovely Autumn colours
OMG! I wouldn't even know where to begin. One picture is more gorgeous than the next. The fall trees with reflection in the lake, the treetops, the purple flowers with the orange pumpkin,, etc. -so beautiful . thanks for sharing them.
Such gorgeous autumn photos. I especially like the reflections.
Absolutely stunning captures. A glorious celebration of Autumn 🍂 ✨️ ❤️
Wonderful photos!!!!
we generally get the yellow, brown and orange, not so much with the red and in between the yellow, orange or orange to red. I always said I wanted to enjoy the New England states fall but hey, Michigan is looking amazing all on its own. Maybe a trip there one day. Beautiful
Very beautiful!
What a cornucopia of fall color! Gorgeous photos, Jeanie. Made me nostalgic for the events you once attended at Southern Exposure. Is it still offering classes, dinners, etc.? A cursory google search didn't come up with much.
The season is so quick and so short that it is worth lingering over previous photos.
So much beauty and colour, enjoy it all Jeanie.
Fall is such a beautiful time of year. I enjoyed looking at those photos.
This was just delightful! Thanks so much for sharing with us! I just love the Fall. :)
You have some lovely photos Jeanie. You definitely captured the beauty of the season. and that last photo captured the fun of this season too. This is a fun post. hugs-Erika
Oh Jeanie! Even when I was still in the Philippines, your blog is always a haven for lovely Autumn photos! I have never experienced it ever until two years before when I went to Madrid for the first time and saw all the beautiful colors (here in Barcelona they only turk from green to brown) but you showcase all different vibrant colors and I thank you for it! At the 22nd of September the temperature here just dropped 7 degrees on both high and low, it was like a switch haha! Stay lovely and warm Jeanie!
I so love the colors of Autumn! Janice
Gorgeous colors, wonderful photos! Virginia
One of my dreams and places to visit on my bucket list is Michigan or that area. The foliage seems like a postcard dream.
Hello Jeanie,
Beautiful fall photos and colors, the trees are all gorgeous and so colorful. Take care, enjoy your day and the week ahead.
Wonderful views of fall, Jeanie. Quite makes my heart go pitter-patter!
Simply beautiful!
Beauty glamor shots..I'm so glad I live in seasons also.:) Fal should be longer though and winter shorter lol:)
Jeanie, what gorgeous shots of fall in Michigan. Wowsa. Definitely my favorite time of year. Of course, fall comes later here in the Deep South. I was able to get a fall groove by visiting the Finger Lakes recently. The leaves were just turning and the weather was divine (cool morning, warm nights, cool nights).
Cheers.
I'm awash in envy. I try so hard to appreciate our Texas autumn, but I still long for those crisp, colorful midwestern days. Enjoy every one of them -- some in retrospect, and some still to come!
Love Southern Exposure...You have some lovely photos there..I don't know if we're going to have any color this yer..It has been too warm and the leaves are falling while still green..
Lots of amazing colors there, and I'm glad you got some London into the mix!
Wow! This post is a real feast for the eyes! So much beauty. Thanks for sharing it!
Glorious - all of it.
So lovely

Beautiful photos of my favorite season! Thanks for sharing Jeanie!
It all looks absolutely stunning! Thanks Jeanie! What a visually perfect time of the year.
So serene, fun and beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
These are just spectacular! They could be a coffee table book.
With you Autumn looks beautiful, thank you, Jeanie!
Such beautiful colours! Around here most trees are still green. I can't wait to see them turn into the colours the trees in your pictures have!
Your stunning photos will put anyone in the mood for autumn to arrive. Great shots from previous years.
These are stunning!
