Pac Northwest Fall

This just proves that we can have a colorful fall in the Pacific Northwest.  Yes, the eastern United States is hard to beat ,especially in the Adirondacks and the Smokies.  But in Western Washington where we have a preponderance of alders and vine maples mixed in with evergreens, we do get bursts of color in late October before the first storms blow the leaves off the trees.

Yes, those are nice colors!  Looks like a great place for a house too... right in a sweet spot for your composition.  :-)

This is a peaceful, inviting scene, David.  The near perfect reflection looks great.
