What is a good short caption for autumn?

“Hello, autumn”, “Falling for autumn” and “Sweater weather” are three of the most popular. If you want a little humour, “Oh my gourd” is hard to beat.

Is it autumn or fall?

Both are correct. “Autumn” is used in Ireland, the UK, Australia and most of the world, while “fall” is more common in the US and Canada. On Instagram, it is worth using hashtags for both so more people find your photos.

Which one are you using? Let us know in the comments, and enjoy every golden minute of the season.
