This has been a most unusual autumn. The warm weather in September and thus far in October has played havoc with our usually brilliant fall colours. I normally look forward to morning fog for those atmospheric conditions that can make for exciting photo ops, but those foggy mornings seldom came. Clear, bright sunny conditions are not what we photographers crave.

Since I have not blogged for a long time, I have chosen a large sampling of my images from the last month. All of these images I made relatively close to home.
