Autumn's Ruby

Isn't this a glorious ruby?!  The tree-- not the fire hydrant! ;o)

Spotted this out of the picture window of the Boomarang Diner in Eufaula, Oklahoma--- my burger basket was just being served but I hopped up, ran out of the door and down the sidewalk like a wild thing to get a shot of this beautiful tree. 

The burger was still hot when I returned and the Boomarang gals didn't even blink-- they are used to my photo fits. However, the lady working in the health club next door...

To see more spectacular reds please visit Ruby Tuesday at Work of the Poet and Rednesday at It's a very Cherry World!

  3. Great shot. This tree is redder than red water pump (?? not sure the name of it, sorry) to the bottom right. It's a nice accent of this photography!!!

  4. Great shot! I also like how the fire hydrant adds a bit of whimsy.
    Love it!

  13. Thanks for all the great comments! I enjoyed all of ya'lls reds too!

    I have no idea what kind of tree it is-- Guess it might be a burning bush since it looks shrubby! If I find out, I will report back.
