Wheeler Farm is a century old working farm, preserved in the center of the Salt Lake Valley for visitors to wander through, feeling the spirit of what it must have been like for their great grandparents who lived with nature, before we paved over it. This was taken November 7 so most of the leaves have fallen, leaving a carpet of gold along the floor of a trail beside the stream going through the middle of the farm. / Enjoy.

A misty fall afternoon on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia.
Yesterday morning nearly all my photographic dreams of the past weeks came true again! It was a brisk misty morning, with the sun breaking through later. I took the bike and went to one of my favourate shooting grounds, the forests near Lage Vuursche, some 6 miles away. And everything happened, riders came along on a misty lane and path, mountainbikers and walkers enlivened the scene, but there were also quiet moments when the lanes and forest just belonged to me. So I came home with a big load of shots after more than three hours – and the heart did not protest once! This really gives a lot of hope for the time to come! Of course there are many shots to share now, but I shall spread the best in my usual way, never more than one per day. After all this gallery is growing fast enough, with more than 500 pictures already. And nothing better to start with than a nice sunbeam shot, with the last November leaves on the beech-trees and a lovely carpet of fallen leaves on the ground.

Taken in the Adirondacks in Wilmington New York. I almost missed this shot because I was so focused on capturing the shot below the falls. I had packed up my equipment and was driving away when I noticed the view from the bridge. I’m happy I followed my instincts and turned around. Taken with a Nikon D40, Tamron 18-270 lens, focal length 45 mm, f/25, 1/13 sec exposure and tripod

The colours and smells of autumn were amazing. No I did not place all the leaves by the brook…lol!!! Please view large
Autumn has certainly arrived in North Devon at the moment. Everywhere is in its fuul colours before the gloom of winter sets in. This image was taken between Bideford and Parkham just of the main road. A900 / KM 17-35 @ 30mm / ISO 200 / f/5.6 / 1/60 sec exp Featured in Falling Leaves
Taken with my Canon PowerShot A1100 in Green River lake State Park in Kentucky. There is a short trail just off the road that runs parallel to part of the lake. It can be a rather dangerous one, as you could wind up sliding downhill through rocks and trees (and snakes!) straight into the lake if you’re careless. It’s still a nice little trail though. I shot this photo when I looked back after walking for a little while.

Although, sadly, the Takata Tea Garden no longer exists, one can still see the legacy of his creations at the Hatley Japanese Garden (located at Royal Roads University) and Butchart’s Japanese Garden. He created all of these gardens plus a private garden before he left Canada at the age of 70 in 1912. To provide authenticity, the materials and plants used by him in these gardens were imported from Yokahama. He used Japanese seal hunters in their off time to assist with the construction. Mr. Paul Allison, a Royal Roads gardener has researched the life and work of Isaburo Kishida. Follow down a path that meanders beside a serene dry streambed reflecting the magic that exists in interpreting the Japanese landscape style to the lush climatic conditions of the Pacific Northwest. Pause at a raked sea of gravel in the Zen style featuring a stately Japanese umbrella pine (Sciadopitys verticillata). This tree, one of the hallmarks at both Butcharts and Hatley Japanese gardens, was purchased between 1909 and 1910 from a Yokahama Nursery. You continue onto a camellia and lantern, which had been purchased at the same time and listen to the relaxing sound of running water. Throughout the two Japanese gardens is the sound of water, which had been created by Isaburo Kishida through the incorporation of rock lined water channels, which include cobblestones. Carry on up and have a seat in a rustic covered seating area beside the camellia. This style of structure was created in both Hatley and Butchart gardens. Look to your right at a moss carpeted fairyland featuring a traditional ‘wild boar scarer’ to enjoy yet more uses of the water channels (see below). As we stop to look at the nearby inlet through the picture window cut in a hedge, one can think back to the role that the magnificent waterfront settings of these two gardens must have played in their development. The desire to blur the line between man and nature was shared by the two Edwardian families- the Butcharts and the Dunsmires- and the elderly landscaper from Yokahama, leading to the establishment of two wonderful Edwardian Japanese gardens.

Just a few trees were still displaying their firey fall colors along Trout Run Mountain Road in north central Pennsylvania. I caught them just in time, before they had nothing left to show but their stark winter nakedness! This photo was captured with a Canon EOS 10D SLR with a Canon EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L zoom lens.
I’m usually not a fan of too many special effects applied to photos… But today I felt like making something “dreamy”. Probably won’t kill me to have one of these in my gallery, heh.
A shot taken on the road on our way to Crabtree Falls in Nelson County, VA / Since it was a car shot, it was quick and crooked. With Picas 3 I straightened it, then played with the shadow and fill light buttons, ending with a final push of the warming element. BEFORE: / AFTER: /
