Description *Full View Please*

Along our journey through life there are many roads to consider. Which one to take? I choose the high road--not for any particular reason, but more for the scenery.

...and when I come to a fork in the road, I'll take it, as the late great Yogi Berra once said

Shot in Spearfish Canyon near Roughlock Falls.

Used an 18-55 lens and a
Circular Polarizer

I'd love to see Vermont, too I don't suppose Miami has much of a fall color run

Just beautiful, those lovely colours. A canopy of leaf brightness in autumn lit orange and the whole woodland atmosphere.

Very pretty - are these Aspen trees? I love Aspen trees in the fall...so stunning. I like the perspective on this, and the lighting adds a nice effect

I do believe they are Aspens. We do have some paper birch around the hills but I haven't found any yet.

I'm tricky that way Thanks, Jack, I really appreciate it, buddy I have several more from this trip that are coming one at a time I'm saving the grand finale for last though--then I'll probably retire from photography because I'll probably never get another set of shots like this again

Thanks again!

Lovely looking place. I like the composition, but I think maybe a little less of the road cut off from that rock would be nice. Other than that, good placement of the road
