The Autumnal Equinox 2009 fell on September 22nd. Autumnal Equinox is a day when of there’s equal day and night and is the first day of Fall.
This day is also called Mabon, Harvest Home, Winter Finding, or Second Harvest Festival. For Pagans, it is a day of thanksgiving to the Goddess for their bounteous harvest and reaping the fruits of their labor. It is the time of celebration, reflection, grace and balance. It is also believed to be a good time to gather our energies and turn our attentions inward.
So on this, the last day of September, allow yourself some rest, relaxation and a time for reflection.

If those are all recent photos you have posted instead of internet captures you can plainly see that your outdoors are in the mountains while we here on the coastal plains will be waiting another month for colors like those. Gorgeous, yes?!
WISH THE COLORS LASTED THRU THE WINTER THEN CHANGED BACK TO GREEN AT SPRINGTIME MAYBE WINTER WOULD NOT BE SO DEPPRESSING??
Love, love those colors and pictures!
