This photo by Scott Jarvie captures the changing of the seasons. The image itself still carries the bright greens and blues of summer, but what catches the eye is the bright gem of yellow in the center. Looking at it, one can almost feel the chill breeze of the oncoming autumn.   

Robert A. Boyd does a spectacular job of capturing sunsets. While the grounds still appear green in this photo, the overall color of the sun setting after a recent rainfall gives the picture a palette of calm, warm colors.

At the same time, Robert captures the feel of cloudy skies and colder weather that we associate with this cozy season.  

Similarly, this picture of the Gilbert, Arizona Temple from the same series by Robert carries the blush of fall on the horizon.

It’s doubtful Gilbert itself ever has much of a fall season, to begin with, if the temple grounds can grow palm trees. But if you’re looking for the pretty orange, yellows, and purples of autumn, that Arizona sunset has it all.  

Panoramic pictures of LDS temples are always inspiring. They show not only the beauty of the building but that of the grounds as well. In this photo, we see lines of fall trees guiding our gaze directly to the glowing temple itself where, here, again, Robert also masterfully captures the sunset.   

If there’s one word to describe this photo, it’s orange. You can see the happy glow in the desert, the sunrise, and the reflection of the clouds in the water.

Similar to the Gilbert Temple, you won’t ever see much of autumn in Mesa, Arizona. But even the desert can have its fall-like touch. And besides, a sunrise like that should never go unnoticed.  

The angle that photographer Scott Jarvie chose for this image captures not only the sunrise but also an allusion to the law of the harvest.

The work that we do in the temple brings blessings both now and in the next life. Since autumn is the season of harvest, we think it’s only fitting that Scott combined both ideas into one photo.  

The Provo City Center Temple lends itself well to this season. The orange-brown of the bricks, in combination with the dark roof, give that quiet, almost storybook feel of fall even without the leaves turning.

In this next photo by Scott, we see not only fall scenery, but also a rainbow, as if it indicates the hope we can find at the temple in today’s oncoming storms.  

The Provo Utah Temple is another LDS temple with a unique look to it. In this photo, we love how the white walls contrast with the dark mountains, and the fall leaves surrounding it.

The tall spire is a beacon amid the gathering storm clouds, beckoning us to come and find spiritual shelter.  

In this photo, Robert takes a different angle to a similar scene. However, the backdrop for this image is a cloud of fog, causing the autumn yellows and reds to stand out.

One might also see it as a visual parable. When our minds feel foggy, or our path seems clouded, this sacred building can become a special place to receive answers and direction from God.
