Autumn Morning in Piedmont Park

This morning I walked to Piedmont Park, adjacent to the Botanical Garden, while David was finishing his meetings.

It was a beautiful sunny morning and the lake was very still.

I expected that the trees would have started to turn, but with the warmer temperatures in Atlanta, very few had changed.

This Northern Mocking Bird was very tame.

The view of the skyscrapers of the Midtown area of Atlanta is always very effective over the lake.  Here it is framed in a bronze dogwood sculpture.

A few roses were still in bloom.

Another view of Midtown over the baseball field.

This magnificent evergreen magnolia tree growing by the lake has a beautiful shape.
