Alright, thanks again to reeftool for the win in last weeks challenge. Here is the theme for this weeks challenge: Autumn/Harvest. With the fall colors reaching their peak this week (in the northern half of the US anyway...) I thought it would be great to see some of your best harvest photos and or your best photos of fall foliage. This weeks contest runs through Next Monday, October 27. Winners will be posted Tuesday the 28th.

Have fun. As always, here are the contest rules....
_______________________________________
1. Post ONE photo (max 1000x1000).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme. It can be color or B&W, your choice.
3. You can offer as much or as little additional information as you wish, but if you have to explain it, it probably doesn’t communicate what you are trying for.
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and chose 1 of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus a day for the judge to choose the winners.

Fall is apple harvest time in mountains around here. These happened to be farm fresh from Elijay, GA

I just happened to be a Longwood Gardens yesterday and they had lots of fall colors!

It's Spring in the Southern Hemisphere!! (all week)

No fall colors around here. I live in the tropics ! (Costa Rica), but we do have harvests during this time of the year. Specifically the coffee bean crop harvest.

Attachment 20748

Coffee beans are hand picked and taken in baskets to the "collector", which measures the volume picked (using that cubic bin) and pays the pickers in the act.

Sorry about that mate!
I knew that this one might leave out a few forum participants...but I couldn't resist this theme with all the beautiful foliage I have around me.

Maybe you could post a picture of last years Autumn/Harvest? No rule says you gotta take the picture this week...

Vines around a column of one of the buildings at the Sir Adam Beck Power Project along the Niagara River in Canada.

[vievetrick]

Sorry can I get clarification on when the shot has to have been taken?

[fletcherkane]

Pat,
No specific dates here. Just a specific theme. Any photo you have taken at any time with a Pentax camera that fits the theme of the contest will be just fine... :-)

I thought the photo had to taken within the week. Even so this is the best I could do - at least it was taken during Autumn last year!!!

Taken a couple of years ago.

I think I've posted this one on this forum before, but just to display, so I'll put it here as well.

A lot of Autumn photos are taken of the forest alive with color. I found this boat covered with dead leaves IN the forest along Fish Creek in Central New York State just a few weeks ago.
