Yesterday when going to meet the Blind man at my house (he can actually see…he just sells blinds), I nearly wrecked my car when I drove by this scene.
Thank goodness I’ve taken everyone’s advice and I tote my camera EVERYWHERE I go.
I knew I had to turn the car around and shoot some photos, it was so beautiful! The orange leaves, the way the trees lined the road along the cemetery, the sun and how it filtered through the leaves…
I couldn’t wait to get home and play around on Photoshop with the photos, I had just Stumbled on some free textures on Flickr and wanted to see if I could figure out how to use them.
Of course I never have been able to figure out how to do the vignette in Photoshop, so I just added that part using THE GREATEST PHOTO SOFTWARE ON THE INTERNET, Picnik. (PS…I’m giving away a PREMIUM Picnik subscription next week!)
There is a certain peace in having moved to Tennessee during the fall and makes leaving my beloved Indiana less painful.
Don’t forget, you can still enter the Vintage Body Spa giveaway until tomorrow morning!

Another beautiful shot!
Photoshop can be so time consuming. I wish I could find something better then Picnik but not as complicated as Photoshop.

I love fall, and I love all the online photo editing tools that are out there. They definitely are quicker than standard PhotoShop.
Beautiful! I love these days where the colors are perfect!
Lovely shot in deed. Worth the stop over! It is always good to keep cam handy!
How beautiful!! I can see why you were compelled to stop and click!!!

Beautiful, Jennifer. What a difference it makes to everything to live in a beautiful place. Now don’t go looking through my archives from a couple weeks ago which have some pictures of Indiana in the fall. Seriously, don’t go.

It makes me hate the flatness of Mobile, though I could get some awesome beach shots if I wanted. Too bad I’m lazy.
Am I the only person who vacillates between longing for the mountains and longing for the ocean?

It’s gloomy, raining and dark here in Ohio right now. I wish I was gazing upon a scene like that right about now!
What a gorgeous picture. Definitely be glad you turned around to get that shot!
Jennifer this is absolutely gorgeous! I have yet to make the plunge and get Photoshop. I have Elements and have had fun with it.
It’s a good thing yo didn’t crash into the cemetery. The picture is fantastic.
I’ve lived in Indiana in the Fall, it’s very pretty — it’s a nice break from the 6,000,000 shades of green, in the Spring and Summer.
Beautiful shot!
Stopping by the side of the road like that is something I often think of doing but never actually have the nerve to do.

What a gorgeous photo. It reminds me of being down in Mammoth Cave National Park. We were there a few weeks ago and it was breath taking. Fall is my favorite time of year.

So beautiful! I really must get over my fear of SLR cameras.
That’s a gorgeous shot of fall – sorry about the game though. Ouch. Wyoming? Eeek. Comfort the Tate.
You still crack me up with the ‘blind guy’ comment. ha. That is a beautiful pic. And just because you have fall leaves, does not make your leaving any easier for us here in Indiana.
That really is gorgeous!!
I love your picture. I am so wanting a new camera! I love walking through old cemeteries and reading headstones. Creepy,huh? It’s just fascinating to me. Anywho, I loved your shot and it should be published in a magazine!
As always, I love reading your blog. Take care-MiMi
Gorgeous! Almost makes me miss home a little.
