366 of 2012 - Day 267

366 of 2012 - Day 267. The leaves have only just started changing color, in Metro Vancouver. It's a shame that most of the trees I see with dead leaves are more due to summer neglect than the changing season.

366 of 2012 - Day 246. Another shot of the August 31, 2012 Blue Moon. It was a good thing I was out walking with Weeb when I was. She spotted the moon when I was ready to give up. It was moving across the sky very quickly - if we had come outside an hour later, we would have missed it behind the other townhouses.
