I've never really cared much for fall. Usually the wide variety of colors in the foliage is lost on me, not because I don't see their beauty but simply because I've never enjoyed cleaning up afterwards! Call me lazy, but I've always hated raking leaves with a sweater on, then getting overheated. Then, I take my sweater off and it's too cold!
That being said, there is one thing that I love about fall: Golden rain trees. I always forget about them until I walk by them during fall. Their bright yellow foliage on windy days falls down upon me like actual rain, and I can't help but think that I'm Zhang Ziyi in that scene from Hero where she's fighting Maggie Cheung. If you haven't seen it, I've attached it here.
Can you move like that? Does red suit you?
ReplyDeleteI wish I could! Come to think of it, I don't think I own much red, though my school colors were red and white. I could see how well I could move like that with a sword in hand, though I would need to be on wires like they are! :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! what a beautiful scene, the falling leaves gold in colour and the fighting scene more like a ballet...how I wish I could experience the actual fall,with trees in all shades of brown, gold, red, yellow!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of leaves. The red and gold really play off one another, then the leaves go red. What a pretty and meaningful scene.
