I got this image during the fall of 2000
during my one and only trip to New England.
That was during my film days. I considered
posting a larger version, but despite sharpening,
it was too fuzzy. Thanks for viewing, and I
appreciate your comments.

Very beautiful Robert. There's nothing prettier than a country lane surrounded by fall foliage. I like how the road leads you down to the brightest and prettiest leaves and then takes a turn to the left.

Great colors Robert,

All of these fall images are really getting me wondering how the E. Sierra will turn out this year. Not to mention Yosemite. Somebody doing a good job of cleaning up the leaves here. Great image thanks for sharing.

Robert, I am thinking like: let me walk on this road, through the tunnel of beautiful trees with a great autumn colors. I can feel the crisp feeling of the weather.
Great image, Thanks for sharing.

Wow, those reds are a real eye-opener on a morning when I haven't finished my coffee. I really like the curve in the road and the large tree anchoring the RHS.

Looks very nice to me, Robert! I love the colors and the tunnel effect as the road bends to the left. Excellent choice for the challenge.

My favorite season here in Northeast Ohio - it's so beautiful... I just wish winter didn't come next!

This is a beautiful shot! I want to get out and shoot, too!
