This is my hometown park on one of those days when a light fog greets the sunrise. Granted this is well after sunrise and I was actually ready to leave when I noticed the rays of light piercing the fog. I usually try and include the sun in shots like this and by using the foliage as a way to filter the suns intensity you get this result!

This is another angle from the fenced in pasture. I don’t know how so much beauty can be contained within this fence but this property sure was full of color from one end to the other and had me reminiscing about the times I would head to New England in the fall and sleep in my truck. I had quite a cozy cushion setup under me and nice warm blankets no matter how cold it got. On more than one occasion I woke to the entire interior covered in frozen condensation.

I came across these tall Maples in a row right beside the road. After careful consideration I decided to lay low on the ground and hide the road completely with the grass across the street.

Some nice fall foliage, a nice fountain and a carpet of fallen leaves. What more do you need?

This property caught my eye last year with its beautiful fall foliage, so this year I decided to ask if I could have permission to wander around the area inside the fence to photograph the fall color. Thankfully the owners were willing to let me see what I could capture and I hope to go one more time before daylight savings ends this weekend. The white fence borders the pasture which slopes down into a small ravine where they have a couple highland cows roaming about. When the cattle first approach you to check you out, their horns can look intimidating but these guys are as sweet as can be. This is one of several I will be sharing as I get to them.

An Amish farm has a large garden of flowers for those who like to pick their own.

A nice assortment of Autumn color on display here!

I headed out this morning at 6:00 am to shoot fall foliage at a location I got permission to explore and it was a great spot that yielded several great images. Fast forward to a couple hours ago and I found myself again heading out to see if I could get one more shot captured before evening took hold. I checked on a favorite old farm I have captured numerous times and I noticed the neighbor had a beautiful maple tree ablaze so I knocked for permission to try and use it to frame the old barn buildings. The owners were kind enough to let me shoot so I shot this image capturing their home, a garden area and the neighbors barn I went to shoot as a thank you. This garden area is 2 feet from the road, so I literally had my tripod collapsed all the way to the ground and I got the shot with my tripod sitting in the lane of travel. I think 4 cars passed till I had the shot but no one gave me a hard time. Fall is my favorite time of year with crisp days and bountiful colors.

Been a while since posting, but fall is coming on strong and I hope to share quite a few. This is a small local farm stand that brings out this old truck as part of their fall display! The mums seemed behind a good bit with full blooming ones outnumbered by quite a bit. I had to keep an eye out for cars as I was standing on the edge of a busy road to get this shot!
