When the leaves begin to change, you naturally find yourself darting to Starbucks and ordering a pumpkin spice latte the second it’s out for autumn. Each day, you watch the green leaves slowly turn from green to shades of crimson, yellow, and orange, before they fall into crunchy piles to jump into. Let's be honest: A picture playing in the leaves and throwing them up like confetti is a mandatory bucket list item for the fall and will look fun and festive for the ‘Gram. When you want to post an unbe-leaf-able photo on the grab, these 40 fall foliage quotes for Instagram captions will have your followers feeling in the spirit of the pumpkin spice (and everything nice) season.

The foliage brings so much life to your pictures. If you've ever been to an iconic foliage destination like Central Park in New York City or at the top of a hike trail to see the mountain views, you know exactly how magical the landscape’s palette becomes in the fall. Honestly, any park populated with tons of trees will bring on the best kind of fall vibes to your feed and you’ll want to document all the colors before they fade into the winter cold.

If there's anything that Mother Nature can teach us throughout the fall, it's that change is essential. In this case, it's worth watching through the naked eye or through as many lenses as you possibly can. I mean, you can't ignore snapping pics of the autumn beauty that surrounds you. Have you ever noticed how no two parks ever portray fall the same way? It's so breathtaking. So, when you can't put into words your love of fall or an amazing foliage view, these 40 captions will help you out.
