Today, there was exactly one tree in the Public Garden that had decided enough was enough and it was time to shed its leaves in a blaze of glory.

Looking through a frame at the tree wasn't the only way to enjoy the scene, though. A grandfather carefully browsed the collection of leaves on the ground under the tree looking for the brightest, juiciest ones, which he then handed to his granddaugher for her rapidly growing collection:

Nice!
Did you take this? Good shot!
Thanks!
Yep, I try to always lug a camera with me -).
PAAM put up similar frames
PAAM put up similar frames all over Provincetown, but with an adjacent vintage picture showing the framed view as it appeared 50, 100, 150 years ago.
really glad...
...you added the second pic of grampa picking out some leaves...I thought he was mooning/photobombing in the first
I love how beautiful Boston
I love how beautiful Boston gets in the fall. The recent rain has taken a lot of the gold and red leaves with it, so those last few trees are something special.
