Without stopping to take a look around, we can sometimes miss the transition of our beautiful nature from summer to autumn. But just in case you’ve been watching the autumn leaves change colors, here’s a list of photos that compare various locations before and after they change into their autumn hues.

Besides the nip in the air, the scarves, and the delicious autumn fruits and vegetables, the changing leaves are probably the greatest sign of autumn that there is. Chlorophyll, which is the green pigment in leaves that produces energy for trees, gradually breaks down in the fall, revealing the many other colors that also exist in leaves. That’s where we get the rich browns, oranges, yellows, and reds – the distinctive autumn colors.

Exactly because of these colorful leaves, the fall season is one of the most popular among nature photography aficionados. And we absolutely agree with that, because as you’ll see from the autumn photos below – the autumn colors do change the already beautiful nature into gorgeous.
