Description
An image taken of a wooded area during peak fall colors. I then used digital effects to create a painterly abstract. I love how powerful this turned out with all the colors kind of like an "Explosion" The alternative word fall for the season traces its origins to old Germanic languages. The exact derivation is unclear, with the Old English fi�ll or feallan and the Old Norse fall all being possible candidates. However, these words all have the meaning "to fall from a height" and are clearly derived either from a common root or from each other. The term came to denote the season in 16th-century England, a contraction of Middle English expressions like "fall of the leaf" and "fall of the year".[12]
During the 17th century, English emigration to the British colonies in North America was at its peak, and the new settlers took the English language with them. While the term fall gradually became obsolete in Britain, it became the more common term in North America.
The name backend, a once common name for the season in Northern England, has today been largely replaced by the name autumn.
