This week, fall has started to make its presence felt. The nights have turned a bit crisp, meaning that the blankets will soon come out of the closet, and the fans and air conditioning will be retired for the season. Fall, however, hasn't made itself seen yet; the colors that everyone eagerly waits for have not turned yet, the woods around my house are still in full summer mode. However, with the change in the weather, it cannot be long off, and soon the hills and forests will burst in color. I missed last year's major changes; when the fall colors reached the central-eastern portion of North Carolina, I was away on business, and it seems to have lasted just a brief time. When I returned the leaves had mostly shed, and winter was marching firmly into town.
So, today's image comes from the fall before, when I and some other intrepid photographers took to the wilds of Indiana's Turkey Run State Park. We were lucky to arrive in the full bloom of fall, and the subtle shifts in hues from red to orange, with some evergreen peeking around, contrasted nicely with the overcast day and rock formations along the river. Enjoy.
