Tulips

I'm still awed by the sight of tulips planted in the streets. From where I came from, we put tulips in refrigerators to maintain their freshness in time for someone to purchase and give them to their loved ones. I have bought these precious tulips from the store before and even when they are refrigerated and well taken-care of, never have I seen those tulips as lovely as what I see now in the streets of DC.

Orange and Green

Another autumn shot. Couldn't stop shooting the beautiful leaves.

This one is from a tree I normally pass by going to and coming from work.

Day 16 -- Last day of the Green

September 22, 2014, Monday, was the last day of the summer. Soon, leaves will start to red, signaling autumn.

Coming from a country of only two seasons (rain and no rain), it takes time to accept the peculiarities and appreciate the unique beauty of having a four-season year. And fall, or autumn, has become my favorite season. Temperature is perfect, trees are extra colorful, and the foliage is utterly romantic.

I bid the leaves goodbye on this last-of-summer day, and I will see them again soon in the spring.
