By far, my favorite season of the year at the IMA is fall. Currently we’re right into the series of weeks where the grounds transform into this amazing color palette of reds, oranges and yellows. I happen to start working for the IMA late September three years ago, just in time to experience the magnificence and get hooked.

I’m not the only one captured by the seasons, as shown by the IMA Flickr Group. As of this writing we have over 200 members and we are pushing dangerously close to 2000 images! It’s wonderful to see the many vantage points brought together to a single point on the web.
Here’s a few photos I captured three years ago shortly after starting at the IMA. They are not altered in any way. I always revel in these photos and tell people about them. So I am taking my opportunity now to share them with you.
Grab the extinguisher. This tree's on fire!

I understand what you mean. The fall just inspires such a burst of color that one can’t help breaking out their cameras. Here are some photos of Central New York (http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=132887&id=733012320&l=fab8671336) taken while walking home.

I spent a blissful hour wandering the IMA grounds on Saturday afternoon and just wanted to express my thanks. The landscape is beautiful, the fall colors are awesome and there’s something interesting around every corner. The hard work, talent and dedication of the IMA horticulture staff is apparent everywhere you look. Thank you for creating such a space in Indianapolis for everyone to enjoy.
