The fall foliage at the
U.S. National Arboretum seemed to peak this week and it's a great time to visit if you're close enough. If you look closely you can see the capitol columns in the background in the photo above.
I love the different reds in the Japanese maple trees in the photo above (taken outside the National Bonsai and Penjing Museum, which is within the National Arboretum).
This interestingly shaped tree is near the old capitol columns (I plan to feature a picture of them in an upcoming post so be sure to return in a few days!).
Graceful yet fiery Japanese maple tree.
Here's an overall shot of the little bonsai maple from
yesterday's blog post. Some of its companions have lost their leaves already but it's still a striking display.
May God bless you this autumn and always!
