Wild Bouquet

Autumn treats us to some of the most delicious colors of the year. Colorful foliage combined with the last of the season’s flowers closes out the growing season in a blaze of glory. I found myself drawn to the arrangement of this natural bouquet with the goldenrod and the dark forest providing the backdrop for the colorful wild asters.

This image was taken at the Mosquito Creek Watershed Restoration Project while visiting the Pennsylvania elk range.

I agree the colours of Autumn are glorious. We have had so much rain here that I feel like we are missing out on seeing them this year.

It's so beautiful how these flowers compliment each other! Asters are one of my favorite flowers, because they bloom when other flowers are fading, AND they are PURPLE (which you happen to know if my favorite color).
