Reply to "Fall Photo Challenge"

The sun came out. Finally, a beautiful bright and crisp fall day. With nothing to do for a while, I jumped in the Pant and headed toward the mountain (Mount Royal - where Montreal gets its name). I found a sweet orange leafed maple, no wait… a fiery, red flamer dancing in the wind. Whoa! Such choices.

I carefully edged over a low spot in the broken sidewalk and rolled carefully onto the grass, parking under a beautiful tree with a brilliant blue sky and mountain behind it.

F&*#! No camera!

I blasted home, making notes about a few other great looking trees and photo locations as I passed the cemetery overlooking the city.

Got home. No camera. Nowhere. Checked every car. No freakin' camera. Checked daughter #1's room. Every possible electronic device ever invented, wires like a spider web, but no camera. Texted her in class - she had it with her. Daughter #2's room. Every cosmetic and electronic product under the sun but no camera. Texted her at work - showing pics from last night's Halloween party to her friends.

Asked my neighbor with three 60s resto's going on in his garage - still no camera.

So my friends, this will have to do.

Close your eyes. Picture my fat bodied, blindingly white GT5, viewed from behind, slightly to the left, on a mountaintop, crouched on fallen orange leaves on the green grass, overlooking a sun-drenched quasi-European metropolis on the river below, with bright red leafy branches fanned out over the car, their fire reflecting off my windows, doors and rear wing.

Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
