Yes, I have freckles.
They come  naturally with my red hair.
No, I didn't always like them.

Gorgeous! (I was a blond child with freckles. They're gone along with the blond hair!)

Love the freckles. My son had freckles and still faintly does - he hasn't always been a fan, but I sure have.

George said...

These are wonderful photos of freckles. I'm sure yours are just as pretty.

We never thought that damage by insects would show up in the fall as beauty spots on the leaves. Nicely done.

Karen said...

Love the leaf freckles! I always liked my freckles, but not my red hair.

Lovely freckles, Carletta! My daughter has freckles and black hair. I get freckles on my nose and cheeks every summer. We had a pony with Freckles and of course, that was his name! We love freckles! xo

Aw, I love freckles. Wish I had them. These leaves are so beautiful--I've never seen freckles on a leaf before. Love the way you photographed them.

Kerri Farley said...

Love these!! Freckles are COOL!!

Lovely, and I also had freckles.. now that I need a X10 mirror to see my face, I must admit I think they look more like age spots.
much better on leaves.

Carletta,

WOW!

I'm just catching up with you. Your last several posts are all just fantastic!

I'm not on blogger as much as I used to be and I can see I've missed a lot of beautiful pictures at your place!
I'll have to check in here more often!

Interesting. I love the patterns. They are truly very unique.

Laura said...

Such beautiful freckles too!!! and the leaves are almost star shaped! Would you like to share something with the gratitude quilt this year Carletta? Directions are at the top of my blog, no actual quilting involved, just writing from your heart.

Freckles on leaves means they are coming to the end of Fall as it looks like you had a bit of frost.

We have snow and our freckled leaves are falling to the ground .

I never had freckles but my two Granddaughters did for awhile.

Great capture.

These are fabulous. I love the "freckles" on the leaves. I have freckles but not that many.
I've always heard of them as Angel Kisses.

I would never have thought to call them freckles, but I like that name a lot!

Rose said...

I LOVE sweetgum leaves!!! Great captures, Carletta.

I had a red headed friend once and she did not like her freckles either. Her mother used to tell her she was "sun kissed". I love your photos with your quote. very fun.

I saw a kid with freckles and wanted so badly to get a portrait because it would have been one of those great character shots. Ultimately, I decided that it was better that I keep my thoughts to myself, rather than freak him out.

Carletta said...

Judi, you are a hoot!
Craver, it would have been. You have to adore kids with freckles and smiles.

Kathy said...

Our autumn leaves have lots of speckles on them. I've been wondering what causes them. Do you know?
