Autumn Mandolin Pictures

**Mandolin Mick** · Oct-08-2010, 1:05pm

I had the day off today for my birthday and took pictures of my 1936 Gibson A-Century in the beautiful Wisconsin autumn leaves!

Anybody else have autumn mandolin photos of their mandolin?

Those are great pictures. That Gibson looks awesome in that lighting.

Here's couple from a past fall. The leaves are not changing here in Arkansas yet. I live in the river valley area at the foothills of the Ozarks.

Woodwizard-

Our peak is about a week from now. In Northern Wisconsin they're at the peak now.
Great reds with your Gibson!

My wife wasn't really keen on the idea of helping post the picture after I did this to her mum.

From my archives. Finished about this time of year based on the aspen leaves.

Thanks... I planted a row of these red maples several years ago ... one about every 40 ft along the 100 yd long boat ramp/launch by my house. They are starting to get fairly big and are beautiful in the fall for sure. It will be well into Nov. before they start turning red here.

I remember that picture I think Jim. BEAUTIFUL!

Large pictures from my wall....

The leaves on the trees here look nothing less than breathtaking ... reds, yellows, oranges, browns ... but it's hard to get the mandolin pictured with those colors because you'd have to put the mandolin in the tree!

The trick is to figure out a natural looking shot to incorporate them. Probably right after they fall off but still have most of their color, by laying the mandolin in the leaves like jartop did on the far right of his pictures.

We are getting close to peak leaf-peeping time here in New England.

Here's my Michael Terris F-5

Thanx guys! These are all suitable for framing ... keep `em coming!!!

**Bill Snyder** · Oct-11-2010, 8:31pm

We don't get quite the same autumn colors as some of ya'll do.

**Mandolin Mick** · Oct-12-2010, 2:01am

Every locale has great shots that another doesn't have, but yeah, we have beautiful colors at this time of year!

It's early springtime here but it's still pretty chilly.Hence the knitting. Heres 2 on the couch , kind of autumn colours though. Great shots guys.

Frankenstein-

Those are really nice looking mandolins!!!

I blew up the pictures; trying to figure out who made them?

Where are you? Australia? New Zealand?

**frankenstein** · Oct-13-2010, 4:09am

Mick, I'm in Oz,the mandolins are a
Blohm and an Ellis special. How come you're up so early? Morning...

**Mandolin Mick** · Oct-13-2010, 4:14am

I'm a breadman and wake up at 1:00am for work.

Wednesday is my day off so I slept in til about 2:30am! It's alright though because I can practice mandolin while everyone is sleeping!
