October waved goodby with sunshine and warm tempereratures and we used the perfect weather for an extended hiking tour on the Wittedindsweg, a crest trail on the Wiehengebirge from Porta Westfalica in the East to the Osnabrück area in the West. Before the sun went down we visited the most interesting spots of the Eastern part of the trail.
I walk this nearby trail quite often, and on this day, I thought the sumac (i think), the fence and path made for a nice enough composition. Just nice enough: not spectacular by any means.

Along the trail, we found a sunset, a solar barn, wildflowers, and a FENCE. A FENCE for Friday! Imagine that!
Note: My computer may be dying. I uploaded this photo before the death, so I was able to make it public via my iPad.

It's been some time since I last went on a night shoot and last night I decided to revisit old favourites with the d800e

faux-lavender added by me; I love the photos of lavender fields in France. This is at Montebello Preserve. I was lower on the same trail.....walking.
Plenty of trails at Stony Creek Metropark, on a windy overcast day. In fact, as my wife and I walked the paths for over an hour, this was the only other person we saw : )
With little wind and lots of moisture in the air the contrails of airplanes are pretty visible. This picture is from before dawn, the sun illuminates already the contrails, but not the earth.
As most landscape photographers know, it can serve the image well to capture color after a rainstorm. The air is devoid of debris like pollutants. foliage is wet and vividly saturated with color, and a polarizing filter helps too. This hiking trail helps illustrate that point, having photographed it a few hours after a down pour.
Hiking the trail in the Lost Forty forest. Funny (and rather ironic) thing is, is that I did get lost for a short time while I was hiking the Lost Forty trail.
This section of forest lies within the Chippewa National Forest near Bigfork, Minnesota. A Minnesota DNR Scientific and Natural Area, the 32 acre Lost Forty SNA, is also part of this beautiful site.
Due to a surveying error back in 1882, this 144 acre section was never logged. As a result, there are numerous 300-400 year old magnificent old-growth red and white pines in this special place.
The sight of these incredible trees isn't the only thing you experience here. The smell of this forest is unique. The sound is also unique. The breeze blowing through the crowns of these old pines make this piece of the north woods sing a totally different tune than most other sections of forest up here. You have to experience it to understand what I am saying.
For more information about the Lost Forty, go to the Chippewa National Forest's Lost Forty Website or the Minnesota DNR's Lost Forty SNA Website.
Some colorful pertrified wood found along the Crystal Forest Trail in Petrified Wood National Park, Arizona.
The 0.8 mile loop trail takes you into the remains of an ancient forest, where some 225 million years ago, 200-foot tall conifers dominated a tropical lowland. Time, climate, and geologic forces buried the trees in layers of mud and volcanic ash, leaving enormous fossilized remains for visitors of the modern age.
The fossilized trees of the Crystal Forest have an unusually high concentration of additional crystals inside the trees themselves — small pockets where the trees have become filled with deposits that eventually turned into quartz and amethyst crystals.
