Urbandale Autumn: Share Your Photos

Isn't this year's autumn grand? Perhaps it feels so precious because we all know it won't last.

But let's revel in these Indian summer days while we can. And while you're enjoying autumn, take some photos and post them on our site. Anything that reflects your take on autumn:

• The blooming mums in your garden,
• A pumpkin patch,
• The brilliant red leaves of a sumac vine,
• The autumn decorations you have in your yard or on your porch,
• Your kids rolling in a pile of leaves.

It's easy to do. Just a couple of clicks of a mouse.

First, you must be signed into Urbandale.Patch.com to post any comments, news events or photos. Simply go to the upper right section of the home page and click on the blue letters that say Log In.

If you're a new user, all you have to do is fill out the boxes with your name, your email address and your email password (or a new password if you want to create one for this site.) That's it!

If you're already a user, just log in, then find this article on the site and click on the headline. Find the main photo of the tree to the right and click on "Add your photos and videos."

You'll get a prompt with a green box in the center that says "Choose files to upload." Click on that and follow the directions. All you have to do is choose a photo on your desk top and upload it.

Upload as many as you like. You can edit to add a cutline and be sure to make sure it's your name as the photographer.

That's it! I look forward to seeing Urbandale's autumn recorded through the camera lenses of Patch Peeps.

Happy snapping.
