Fall's Last Hold Out
I spent a few days in the Eastern Sierras attempting to capture Fall color images.
Hailing from Pennsylvania, I find the shift, overall, to be a bit less captivating than the change in the Northeastern United States, where there exist a wider variety of deciduous trees. That's not to say that fall in the West isn't pretty, it's simply more focused on the Aspens as they turn gold against conifers like Junipers and other pines.
As my trip wound down, I made a last stop at Whitney Portal, the Trailhead for climbing Mount Whitney from the Eastern Sierra. Due west of Lone Pine, I had hoped I might find some remaining vibrant color. Unfortunately, this location was well past its peak, though there were still signs of autumn throughout. I thought this natural leaf catch was a brilliant last stand.
