Photo Challenge # 22 S.O.C.C straight out of the camera

For all my buddies that are not part of the photo challenge group please feel free to visit. http://www.photochallengeblog.blogspot.com/ Okay ladies and Roland. Roland welcome to the group.Here are some shots I got earlier this week. Remember how I complained about mother nature skipping over fall. Well I did not have any good shots of the leaves changing color and displaying its beauty in all all its glory before falling off the trees. I used a snapshot of snow. Well that snowfall was just what the trees needed and we have a spectacular display of fall colors. This is the most vibrant year in Reno and the kids and I had a wonderful fall walk in my most favorite part of town. There is this one house as we walk along the path and these are the pictures of their backyard through a chain link fence. How I wish I could be a swan and live there too. Hope you like these. I will post more pictures of the walk later today.
Also I have one request. My six year old is on a mission to collect postcards and now my daughter is too. We have started a while back and i let them buy a postcard every time we got to a new place. I was wondering if any of you will be willing to mail them a postcard from where you are. I had another friend send one from Australia and my son took it to school and they looked it up on the world map. He was so thrilled and we had to read up on Australia. I want to feed his hunger for the knowledge of the world. Please help me with this. I hope it is okay to post this here. If you can and willing to send one please leave a comment with your e-mail and I will send you my address.
Thank you so much for another wonderful challenge. I loved this one. Let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by.
