I count myself blessed that half my cycle ride to work is through the Phoenix Park. I don't carry a camera, but I did absolutely have to stop on Monday morning to snap the deer on our first really frosty morning. I was an hour later than usual on Monday because I knew I'd be on-site on Tuesday too, so for once it was lightening instead of still dark.
This was earlier in the year -actually back in September, so it was sunrise around 7 in the morning, and it was a beautiful foggy morning with the sun just breaking through.
And, not on the way to work but the route I usually take to the library, which runs parallel to the main road and is slightly farther, but has a cycle track - I thought the leaf fall pattern on this tree was very unusual.

Wow. Those are really stunning pics! You could submit them to the local paper or National Geographic!
That is a weird leaf fall. In reverse I would say it would like a kid with a Mohawk cut.
I am glad to hear half your ride is thru the park...both for the beauty and for the safety of not being on a car road.

Both are beautiful and peaceful scenes. I see the trees are protected very nicely. I would love those kind of tree enclosures to protect our plantings. Our remaining oak tree is having a leaf fall similar to the one you've captured except that it's all on one side. I'm afraid it might be sick. I love that you can use your bicycle to get around. I wish we weren't so hilly here, even though they're very small hills.
