Autumn Scenes in St Mary's County 2025

Just a few more Autumn scenes before I switch to something else. It's my second favorite time of year after Spring. The colors are beautiful, even though they don't last long.

Forest Landing and Vicinity

I like photographing the pretty leaves near Forest Landing in the Autumn. Its a peaceful place popular with canoes, kayaks, boaters and fishermen. I also photographed a small lake nearby.

Gilbert Run Park

We went to Gilbert Run Park for the fall colors on my birthday, mostly because I was afraid it would be one of the last nice days with leaves left on the trees. I didn't know Jim invited some friends at the last minute. Here are photos of the park I took of the trees, hybrid geese, canoes and some lovely birthday flowers from friends in didn't expect.

Three Notch Trail

There is a St Mary's Parks and Recreation Fall Photo Contest, so I decided to vist Three Notch Trail again. I didn't find it too interesting last time as far as scenery goes, but they have added a few things, and it was prettier than I expected in the Fall. The Trail was originally an old railroad track route that was abandoned, so the county thought it would make a nice trail. It is popular with runners, bicyclists and the Amish, especially in the northern part of the county. I visited sections near the John V. Baggett Park, where I had never been and near the Charlotte Hall Library entrance. The first 3 were images I sent to the County.

Scarecrow Stroll in Leonardtown 2025

On the recommendation of a friend, I drove to Leonardtown to photograph the scarecrow competition in Leonardtown. There are some very creative folks around here.
