While parts of York County have seen color changes (more in individual trees than locations), autumn has started its slow progression south.

In Ontario and Quebec over the weekend, the color I saw was most obvious east and north of Brockport, Ontario, and then south through the Adirondacks.

Many trees in New York haven't caught the autumn fire yet, including most in this picture. Contrast in the stark white birch tree accents the few red and yellow leaves that have made the change.

Without giving license to youngsters through the land, this is a photo taken years ago of one of the few sports that ESPN II hasn't yet covered.

Pumpkin jumping is the ability to jump from one pumpkin to another without squashing, breaking, cracking or otherwise destroying the season's most famous person, Jack O. Lantern.

This boy's parents ran a pumpkin farm and didn't seem to mind him hopping from one pumpkin to another. Appparently, he's become good enough at it that he knows which can be jumped and which ones will become mush.

Notice the angle at which the photo was taken. The background has been simplified, and the viewer's eye goes to what's important, not a busy background of trees, farms and fences. Bend your knees, give the viewer a scene other than what he'll see as he drives past.
