Shot taken near Town Lake in Austin, Texas

Taken in the early morning in the Countrywood neighborhood of Walnut Creek, California.

A quick shot taken yesterday afternoon outside the back door of my parents house. The color here in Connecticut right now is very surprising given our serious serious drought.

The Pentax DA* 300mm is an incredible lens. Even though I'm the one who took it, I can't believe that there wasn't any saturation or sharpness added to the RAW file before converting. A good testament to what can be done with good light and an even better lens.

The neighbor's driveway, which is long and lined with maple trees.

Below is a video of the same lane, if you like seeing trees and want to take a little walk up with me.

I was working on all of the fall foliage photos I had taken, when we had the sudden snowstorm. Now, the 6" of snow we received has disappeared and everything is brown. November...my least favorite month (although March is a close second).

Maples at their peak of color, on every hillside. Autumn in the foothills of New York!!

The bare trees are most likely Ash trees, which lose their leaves very early in the season. Or perhaps they are dead or dying Ash.

SOOC shot - amazing viewed large.

I spotted this across the river while driving. By the time I found a place to pull over and got in position, the sun had disappeared behind clouds and I had to wait 20 minutes before it came back to shine a spotlight on those trees! I’m glad I waited!

Fall colors in New York

The end of October, to be exact. Color was late to arrive this year [just like the cold weather and snow were late].

It's another day with temperatures not much above 10 degrees [F]. These shots from mid-October bring back some good memories!

The yellow tree is a Sugar maple; the rest are Red Maples, mostly past their peak of color.

Hi from my hometown of Pittsburgh, PA, where I've been visiting family for a few days before heading to New York for the annual PhotoPlus Expo convention.

The leaves are kinda perfect right now.

We don't need no thought control

near Prairie Du Chien, WI

soft tones on a dull day, overcast like today

I liked this because it looked like a pastel. I wasn't sure if I should crop out the blue at the bottom because my eye keeps going to it, but I love the color, so it's staying!

near Galena Illinois

Taken in New Hampshire

So many colorful shots from then! At present, nearly all leaves are down and it's cold and gray out there.

Hard to believe this is real.

Orange leaves, beautiful tree, cemetery

There was plenty of color at the outlet of this pond as sunset approached - yet the reflections were mostly black.

This flower amazes me, and I have no idea what it is. It came from my daughter who has a similar huge thicket of them. They are perennials and come back every year.

These pure yellow flowers go on for several weeks as blooms open along the stalk.
