Fall Colors in Corato!

The colors of southern Italy are pretty basic. There is the green of the olive orchards and cactus, the blue of the sea and the brown of the earth, especially in the heat of summer. I had an unexpected surprise today as I was driving up to Corato to get the girls from school. I turned a corner and there was a vibrant red wall of leaves! What a great Autumn surprise!

Beautiful red surprise.


This is the green of the olive orchards.
