鈴の宮公園の秋色 ２ (Autumn Colors in Suzunomiya Park -2-)

　11月12日、堺の鈴の宮公園で。1枚目の写真で紅色をていしているのは、8月末から一部分紅葉しはじめていたイロハモミジ。この公園の他のイロハモミジの木はまだこれほど紅葉していない。2枚目は、一昨日近くで撮った写真を掲載した公園西入口の方を、東から遠望した光景。近くで見るよりも、サクラの紅葉が進んでいるかのように見える。3枚目は公園の池の東にある一本のサクラ。

Photos were taken in Suzunomiya Park, Sakai, on November 12. Leaves of red color in the top photo are of the Japanese maple tree, some leaves of which already began to take autumn colors at the end of August. The other maple trees in this park are much slower to take autumn colors than this one. The middle photo shows the distant view of the area around the west entrance of the park (the day before yesterday, I posted photos taken at that area). Turning into autumn colors of cherry leaves is seen to have much more proceeded in the distant view than in a close look. The bottom photo shows a cherry tree near the east end of the pond of the park.
