The wave clouds over the mountains and streaming across the plains brought out the autumn colors nicely this afternoon. 🍁⛅️🚴🏽♂️

A large, somewhat-misshapen cottonwood tree standing on a small hillside, its leaves golden-orange in the filtered afternoon sun. There are other, smaller trees and shrubs nearby in greens and reds. A bank of thin wave clouds hangs above the trees with blue skies behind.

A large pond at a park surrounded by trees, grasses, cattails, and shrubs, in different shades of autumn color — from greens, to golds, to oranges, and a few reds. There is a line of distant mountains peeking above the trees in the far background with long, sinewy, wave clouds streaming across the otherwise blue skies above the mountains. The thin clouds are filtering the afternoon sunshine and really bringing out the autumn colors in the vegetation.
