Some Local Leaves

[MonikaC]

I wasn't able to get out of town (again) this week due to various complications, so went on one of my usual dog walks, but with camera this time. I realized when I had driven 20' from home that I'd forgotten my tripod, so these are handheld panos. The usual walk is actually a bit lower, but I'd found myself atop this crag last winter when I was a bit lost following someone else's tracks in the snow.

BTW, colors are peaking now in Colorado pretty much everywhere as much as I can find out.

Wow - you have some nice color displays going on in CO. I'm jealous but our turn will come eventually. I like the view in both of these images.

And you will have some reds to capture, as I recall from my visit some years back.

That's awesome you got out Monika! I really like both of these, but the composition in #1 with that tree framing the image is sweet.

Monika, nice of you going out, I have seen a few Colorado foliages from last weekend, it seems there were snow fall, it looked gorgeous.

The snow didn't stick around very long, unfortunately. But I'm sure there will be more to come. It just hailed (pretty hard) down in the flats and knocked lots of leaves off of trees.

Thanks, Pepper.

Thanks, Jim. I was on my way down (a different way than how I went up, but I think the same way I went up in the winter) when I came upon that composition and had to stop.

Monika, very nice images especially the first with the spectacular foreground. And as Pepper said above, love the layers!

Beautiful fall display
