The Autumn Colors of Oxford

England's Autumn colors are beautiful but much more subtle when compared to the seasonal colors of New England.  What you see here are splashes of colors against a fairly constant green backdrop.  Sometimes it's the shrubbery and vines here that boast the brightest Autumn colors.  (By the way, Fall is an American word) 


 In New England, you can see entire forests transformed into a glorious blaze. There is nothing quite like the brilliant red of maple trees  and the vibrant yellow of  the trees of New England.  I feel fortunate to be able to enjoy them them both!
