Yellow {Shades of Autumn Photo Challenge}

Photobucket
To me, yellow is synonymous with Autumn. Bright. Happy. And the perfect complimentary color for those reds, oranges, and browns. It has many facets to it's character. A golden personality if you will.

It can be striking against a blue sky or dark trunk.

It can be sweet and delicious.

It can be contrasting and bold.

It can be subtle and corny. (Sorry, couldn't help myself.)

And definitely warm and inviting.

Autumn wouldn't be the same without it.
