Kancamagus Highway: 34.5 mile part of NH 112, an “American Scenic Byway.” Winds through the White Mountain National Forest, along the Swift River, from Lincoln to Conway, NH. One of the best fall foliage / leaf peeping areas of the USA.
Fuji X-T20. Fujinon XF18-55. 20mm, f/16, 30 sec, ISO 200.
Very windy that day - bad for long exposures.
Thanks for viewing!
Explored (11/30), fun.
This shot is from Halibut Point State Park in Rockport, Mass. The warm sidelight is courtesy of late afternoon (which at this time of year is really early). It's a 'quieter' shot, a detail instead of a broader landscape, but I liked it more and more as I sorted through the photos from that afternoon. Flattered to have so many others like it through it being Explored.
Submitted for Gallant 15 Challenge: November Hues.
(I swear, I was thisclose to submitting a photograph of a Thanksgiving Leftover sandwhich, with turkey and cranberry making up the November hues that I first think of. But I didn't like the picture as much, so I'm going with this one from a quarry, with the plant life pushing through the cracks.)
The Burnett-Garfield house is particularly significant to Southborough’s history going back several generations. The house itself was built in 1849, with locally quarried stone and meticulous attention to detail in the Second Empire style. Joseph Burnett, who built the home, was a descendant of one of the town’s first settlers. In addition to building Deerfoot Farm, which was the town’s largest employer for years, Burnett was a successful chemist and entrepreneur.
His nationally known company, Burnett’s Extracts, created and sold the first commercially produced liquid vanilla extract. Burnett’s legacy lives on in Southborough, as he founded the St. Mark’s School and St. Marks Episcopal Church, helped to establish the Fay School, and was the principal benefactor of Southborough Town Hall and Library.
