Ruby Tuesday

Two for the price of one ...

I went outside Sunday to get a shot of this shadow on the house for next week's Shadow Shot Sunday meme, and was able to get a Ruby Tuesday photo at the same time.

Dying weeds make for some vibrant autumn foliage, don't you think?



To see more photos featuring a little or a lot of red, visit our hostess, Mary T, The Teach, at Work of the Poet.

Happy Ruby Tuesday to all ~

And what a vibrant red it is! Nice shadows, too, though the bright red steals the show.

Very nice composition. I love the contrast between the red leaves and the white wall beyond. Well done indeed. Happy RT.

The beauty of the autumn maple is unique.
No wonder Canada chose it for her flag.
Looks like you are having a sunny season though.

I love poinsettias! If only they blossom all year round. =)

From the side, it looks rather like a poinsettia rather than a glorious weed!

Crinkly crimson leaves
crisping in the autumn sun—
your life’s almost done…
