I'm glad I usually have my camera in the car with me on the way to work. The long light of autumn is the best!

Slash’s standout bike is the 2007 Harley-Davidson VRSCDX Night Rod Special—a liquid-cooled street-legal dragster. Its Revolution V-Twin 1130 cc engine churns out 121 hp, launching the fat 240 mm rear tire off the line with explosive force. He added custom drag-style bars and forward foot pegs to perfect its “lean, mean” look and feel.

This tree really stood out against the stone of this old church....

Mt. Salem United Methodist Church

Wilmington, De

But this one wanted to be noticed :)

Head and shoulders above the rest made this one the center of attraction. Fall flowers at their best.

...in a crowd

There's a lot of geraniums around the gardens, and I was struck by the way the yellow-orange leaves stood out against the background of their greener kin.

Best way to stand out in a crowd ? Be yourself!

At bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvelously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time. ~ Friedrich Nietzsche

They're all beautiful, but that tree on the left is stunning.

Contax G2, Kodak Ektar 100

The standout foliage on this oak tree won't last much longer.

Two days later: prediction fulfilled; sadly, almost all the leaves had fallen from the tree.

Some trees demand to be photographed!

Red Maple Leaf in Bamboo

Boulder, Colorado.

This stunning Floribunda is a standout in the landscape with an array of colors and very healthy foliage. Garden Delight’s multicolored and high-centered buds will open to fully double, cupped blooms. The delightful, yellow center is surrounded by stunning pink to red edges, and the more sunlight it receives the more intensely pink it gets. Her coloring will vary according to climate and she thrives best in zones 5-9.

A Kordes rose, bred by Tim Hermann (Germany, 2001). ... Introduced in Germany by W. Kordes, "Garden Delight" is well-named! This bed is one of the most colourful in the Stanley Park Rose Garden.
