Outside My Window: Watch New England Leaves Change During 2012 Foliage Season

By Kim Knox Beckius, About.com Guide

Ah, fall! There is no doubt we're in the midst of it now, and the colors in my view are as vivid as they're bound to be. I feared I'd have to share a gloomy scene with you today: I shot a first batch of photos just after noontime in the cold, drizzly rain. But shortly after 3 p.m., the sun suddenly popped, illuminating rich copper and gold tones. The peak seems to have arrived early this year, but there are still green-leafed trees that will keep the kaleidoscope changing for at least another week.
