Yesterday at Mount Auburn Cemetery, the day’s last light ignited some trees in scarlet and orange.
The gilded age
If you want to take an afternoon walk in New England in November, you need to do it early, as it is dark by 5:00 pm. Yesterday at Mount Auburn Cemetery, the day’s last light ignited some trees in scarlet and orange while others were drab and leaden. Luckily for me, groundcrews hadn’t yet removed the thick carpet of leaves underneath a ginkgo near the cemetery entrance, each leaf as golden as a coin.
