Images of Fall

The weather over the past month has been typical for fall - a collection of warm & dry days mixed with cold & damp ones. Foliage this fall seemed a bit less brilliant than years past; it certainly was short lived. Leaf colors, which peaked during the first week of October, faded dramatically this past week and were stripped by strong winds over the last couple of days.

The following shots are a small collection of the images I was fortunate to record over the past month.
