The season of Autumn or Fall takes place from the autumn equinox to the winter solstice.
The word Autumn comes from the Latin autumnus/auctumnus. The use of fall to mean autumn in North America comes from the phrase "fall of the leaf".
Deciduous trees loose their leaves before winter, the colour change which takes place in the leaves before they fall is what defines the look of autumn. Here are some beautiful autumn pictures, more can be found here at autumn-pictures.com.
