Autumn is Finally Here in St. Mary's County!

I loved this red tree with a reflection in the water.  The light was really nice between the clouds.

Lovely reflection.

I played with the zoom on this one for an interesting shape.

Autumn at Hazel Mountain overlook in Shenandoah 2019

There was a parking lot between the tree and me.  I liked the circular feeling.

Bryson City Sunset View October 23, 2017

We were stranded at the Sunset View Cabin in Bryson City NC all day while our brakes were repaired.  It rained hard all day, washing out trees and roads even days later. 

 I washed our laundry.

Finally the skies cleared toward evening, so I took a few photos.

  Why the cabin was called sunset view.

Autumn Reflections

I spent an afternoon photographing fall leaves in St. Mary's County.  I love reflections of leaves in water.
