Nice fall color. When I see shots like these I prefer them to all be the same.
Fun seeing the transition. The fall shot sure is pretty! But...no snow scene (not that there's any hurry, lol)? Nice series, Bob.

Excellent idea and great execution!!
Fun idea to pick your spot and get the seasonal changes. I hope you post this later with a winter addition!
I like the idea of this very much. I agree with Frank regarding "same" in that using the same focal length for each would add a cohesiveness. Of course that would require long term planning and note taking (in my case)
Are you shooting from a balcony/deck? Is this your backyard? As Treepusher says, winter is near; get ready!

I am standing on a small landing, outside my bedroom. Same exact location wouldn't work. Not on a tripod. Same focal length? Just didn't think of it. Will wait till biggest snowfall this winter And post it. My prediction is for a lot of snow this winter. we are in a prolonged drought. If it breaks in the winter we are in for a lot of snow. The view is of the 16 acre hay field, on the north side of the property.
A tried and tested idea that can be very interesting. Whilst you have a very nice view and open aspect from your house its probably lacking the impact and simple wow factor this sort of series can achieve. I think you need to find a local beauty spot that grabs the attention and take your shots there. If you feel
its worth doing its worth the effort. I'm never convinced that exactly the same spot and focal length add anything other than novelty value.
I am however rather jealous of your seasonal changes. Living in the tropics I get get hot and wet or hotter and dry. So it was nice to look at an autumn leaf or two.
