Images of Autumn

Awesome!

I actually just came back from the woods taking fall shots. Will post soon.

great shots all around, friend!

it's has been a perfect fall for colors.....

You just made me a little homesick. Some of those could easily have been taken in my home state of Pennsylvania. Y'know...the funny thing is that I actually grew up in that kind of beauty, and took it all for granted. It wasn't until I visited "home" several years ago, that I realized that..."Hey! This is some damned beatiful countryside. Why didn't I ever see that before?"

It might be time again for another trip back east.

Here's one from this weekend taken in upstate New York

Beautiful!

I love the first one, it makes me want to go there and sit by the river.

Nice photos, & beautiful area.

Yeah, wow... these all look so much like central Pennsylvania. Even that first bridge shot looks exactly like the bridge in Harrisburg... go figure.

I LOVE the colors... thank you so much for sharing these. I am really missing autumn colors this year, as it's my second fall in Iceland and it's just not the same up here (no trees, for one thing!). Just gorgeous views... can't wait to get back to some deciduousity. :D

Thanks. I'd been putting off getting out this year since both mine and my brother's work schedules have been crazy. I decided to take a vacation day and hike in the mountains with my wife and am glad that I did. The colors that day were probably the brightest I've seen around here. Colors have peaked here now and maybe faded a bit, so the timing was right. Hope you had a chance to get out too.

I have a 16x20 print hanging on my living room wall that I took at this spot a few years ago. I was hoping to get a picture without some ugly branches in the view, but haven't been able to get back there when the colors were right. Maybe next year.

These are all around the area about 100 miles north of NYC near the Hudson River.The bridge crosses one of the large NYC reservoirs that are in the area. These few weeks are probably about the best time of year around here with all the color and the comfortable weather.

I have a few more I need to look at from yesterday. I'll probably post a couple more.

I did manage some time to shoot, and now i've got a folder full of raw files to mess with. Definately hope to post a few soon......:thumbsup:

Are the OP pics from upstate? Some shots look very familiar. The bridge shot was breathtaking, literally. I gasped when I saw it.

These pictures are from near Poughkeepsie, NY to near Hunter, NY (80-120 mi north of NYC). The bridge is a crossing near the middle of the Ashokan Reservoir, about 15 miles west of Kingston, NY

Just realized, there are two bridge pictures. The first is the Ashokan Reservoir bridge, the second is the Mid-Hudson bridge in Poughkeepsie

Ah, my mother is from Poughkeepsie.

Are those last ones in New Paltz?

I'm in Saratoga Springs, about an hour north of you...

The last three are in Minnewaska State Park, about 10 miles west of New Paltz. I've been there a few times trying to get lots of color without luck. I'm beginning to think the trees there are mostly pine, and therefore little color.

One more set from today. The color peak is now 20-30 miles south of me, so this is about it for around here. I might be in N.E. Pennsylvania or N.W. New Jersey this weekend and find a few more spots.

Hudson river and mountains in Hudson Highlands region. This is from Mt. Beacon in Beacon, NY, near the top of an old cog railroad run. This is a fairly tough 1 mile hike that climbs something like 1000 ft in 1 mile. East coast trailbuilders don't seem to have heard of switchbacks.

Beautiful photos. Love the color in the one with the grave stones.

I'm very jealous, thanks to an early hard freeze we got almost zero color in NE Ohio this year (many years I feel we rival Vermont for fall foliage). I would say 90+% of the Cuyahoga valley looks like this photo you took:

I'm really kind of bummed because I finally broke down and bought a good DSLR earlier this year for my vacation to Yellowstone and was hoping to get some nice fall shots. I guess now I have to hope for good snow and ice pics =)

Did you wait long enough? Have all the leaves fallen without turning? We had great colours here. The leaves are gone now. These were taken last month.

Very nice -- Autumn is surely the photographer's season.

A special thanks for photos of Beacon. I have an interent friend who lives in Beacon, & I wondered what it looked like.
