A solitary black oak stands tall in directly backlit sunlight on the valley floor on a fall day. As I passed through the valley I had not expected to see fall color in such full swing. I had not previously thought there were as many deciduous trees as they clearly are in Yosemite Valley. And I had thought the oaks would mostly just be going directly to brown. However, there were some beautiful oaks, such as this tall specimen, that showed off a yellow and even orange-ish hue when backlit by the sun. As I passed directly beneath Horsetail Falls I spotted this tree and pulled over. I wandered out into the meadow to try to line up a composition with the tree against the cool shadowed granite backdrop of Cathedral Rocks. At maximum tripod extension I was just able to fit it in without too much sky, and the haze in the air allowed some crepuscular rays to beam off of the rocks high above even. I have ever been a fan of oaks and I ponder what this tree would look like in the snow in the coming winter months.
TSBY GP35 #393 has just arrived in Cadillac with a Lake Central Railtours Fall Color train in October of 2007. My friends and I rode this train up from Owosso, and I even got to ride in the cab of 393 from Owosso to Mt. Pleasant. After a stop for lunch here in Cadillac, the train would run west on the old Ann Arbor to Yuma, where it would reverse direction and head back home, arriving in Owosso around 8 pm. This was one of the last years for Lake Central Railtours, as rising insurance costs finally forced them to shut down.

The Tamarack trees at Highland Forest were perfectly colored and the late afternoon sun was hitting them just right. We've had some beautiful early November days so far for fall hiking.
The light you see during the fall is so deceiving. Even though the chill nips at your nose and you can see your breath the light always looks so warm.
And as you can probably notice from the last few pics, I ran around the woods this weekend making the Golden's sit in every patch of sunlight I could find. They both got steak when I was finished!!!
View Large On Black to feel the warmth.
This is most likely the last of the fall colors, as may trees are bare now, and it is colder, although no hard freezes yet.

This is my FAVORITE time of year! This was just a simple cupcake made for the Sweet Shoppe this weekend. I love how the leaves just look like they are falling right off!

There is just something really special about waking up before the sun, getting dressed in your warm cloths because you are hoping for some fog and frosty conditions when you get to your sunrise location. Once you make it to your spot, you start to see the conditions you were hoping for are really there so you start to get excited..... then the sun starts to peak it head out from behind the mountains and CLICK!!! you captured what you had been waiting all summer to catch. That's kind of what I was hoping for this fall foliage season but the fall foliage here in NY wasn't at all what I had hoped it would have been.
I know I haven't posted here in while, but I'm trying to get back at it!!
have a great weekend!!
The last image in my series of Autumn captures from Loose Park in Kansas City, Missouri. The clouds have been hanging around for what seems like weeks. I've had the last few days off on a mini vacation of sorts (doing some home repairs and a few photo walks). I was trying to capture a little of the Autumn spirit without having the grey skies bring me down so I had to go where the colors are and they all seem to be on the ground.

Colors are starting to change, my favorite time of the year.
Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as my picture with the most comments
September 22 at 9:38 the sun crosses the Equator heading south to the Tropic of Capricorn, this is my favorite time as the sun makes this trip. Equal night and day as the sun crosses the Equator and then the shortest day when it gets to the Tropic of Capricorn, that is for the Northern Hemisphere.
As delicate as they look, Fall crocuses, like their Spring cousins that pop up through the snow, thrive in cold frosty temps....amazing. :)
I think every photographer has a favorite tree that they love to visit at various times of the year. This is mine. I see it every day as I take little Beau on a walk, and try to take a picture of it in the different seasons. Here is my fall interpretation….
Lundy Canyon, Eastern Sierras, California.
While not noticeable at first glance, there are hundreds of leaves in motion here. The image was captured shortly after a strong gust freed the yellow decorations form the Aspen parents.

Oh, how I love October, November, and December. Finally we turn away from the awful summer heat. I begin to see the images of autumn which I love. This is Robbers Cave State Park in the mountains of Eastern Oklahoma. Once again I arrived after a four hour drive from Central Oklahoma, barely in time to get my tent up. It was very close to dark. I camped here on the river flowing out of the lake about a quarter mile upstream. The morning air was crisp and I caught a little fog rising off the water. The sun was just beginning to break the top of the bluff. It was such a lovely park, and I made friends with a wonderful couple close by. The park is called Robbers Cave because there really is a cave near the lake where some infamous robbers of the last century did hang out.
