Autumn Color in the Adirondacks

Photo of the Day 279/366

This photo was taken last weekend on our return trip from Maine. We decided to take some back roads through Massachusetts and New York. We ended up going through the Adirondacks and stayed in the Catskills on our way. This was taken from a scenic overlook in the later afternoon light. The clouds were coming in but the autumn color was definitely coming on. I wish I could be there even now, a week later, as I believe it is even better.

Quote of the Day: "Water offers no resistance. Water flows .. Water is not a wall .. Remember that half of you are water. If you can't get over an obstacle, go around it - how the water does." - M. Atwood

Quite Place in Autumn Beauty

Saturday Choice:  This photo was taken a couple of years ago on a road trip, with friends, to West Virginia. We stopped in many places during the trip so I can't say exactly which town this was in, but I remember walking into a park, in mid-afternoon, and being stunned by the simple beauty of this scene. I just had to capture it.

Red Tinged Clouds over the Trees Photo of the Day 345/366 I took the photo last week on the way home. It was a wonderful sunset sky and I couldn't pass up taking a number of shots while it was available. These clouds with the red edges from the setting sun were a wonderful sight over these trees just behind the rolling field in the foreground. A nice evening sky for sure.

    Photo of the Day 307/365  Autumn Colors on Display by the Creek This photo was taken last weekend on our mini-vacation. We were on our way home and happened to find a pull-off - in the rain - and I took some photos by this creek. The colors just seemed to pop in the damp drizzly weather but the camera couldn't quite capture the bright colors. I didn't want to over-edit it but this is close to what I experienced that moment.

Tracks into the Sunset Photo of the Day 342/366 This photo was taken last evening on the way home from work. I took a number of photos and could not quite get the sun peeking through  the clouds. This is the closest I got. I love the colors in the sky and the reflections in the railroad tracks. I've taken this scene before, but it always makes me think of life moving on and on, rolling into the sunset of life - as I get older, those thoughts become more frequent.
