#WW Late October Colors

DSC_5354 autumn leaves
I snapped this photo late October on the North Carolina side of the Smoky’s at Collins Creek Picnic area. The colors weren’t a vibrant as I would like, but with the exposure lowered it turned out ok. The important thing is, it was a gorgeous day and I was having fun.

This is on the BRP heading toward Mt. Mitchell State Park. The body of water in the background is the Asheville Water Reservoir. There are no turn offs and pulling off the road in this area is not permitted. I took a quick shot out my window with my camera held up in the air. I just guessed at the exposure. It’s too underexposed, but I love the sun flare.

I took this shot in the Smoky Mountains near the top of the mountain just across the North Carolina state line in the park. The colors looked nice and it was the best we saw on this trip for late October. Obviously, the autumn show was running behind schedule just a bit. No complaints, though. It was an outstanding day!



I’m running a wee bit behind schedule today but I appreciate your visit VERY much and I will hop over to your place soon!

 

Have a fototastic day!

  1. I miss that side of the country. I lived in NC for 4 years and in VA the 5 years before that….beautiful captures.

    1. Lee, you’re too sweet! I know seeing pictures of East Tennessee has to make you a bit home-sick! You might live on the other side of the coast, but here is where your heart will always be. Thanks for visiting!

  5. You captured so beautiful scenes and YES to that sun flare. I got a few of those myself this week. I didn’t even have my big girl camera, but I was not going to let the chance slip by, even if my phone camera is generally crappy. It’s all about just being out there and enjoying this wonderful world! 🙂

    1. Les, hey when you have an iPhone, even if it’s an old one, who needs a big girl camera? I’m always amazed at how well yours iPhone takes pictures. I can’t wait to see what you have for us! Thanks for stopping by!

    1. Claudia, I liked the quote, too. Unfortunately, there are some kids no matter what you do they get involved with drugs. Thanks for stopping by!

  7. Hi, dear Cathy! I’m still blogging tonight so I thought I’d drop in one more time to say hello. I appreciate all three of these pictures. The first two might be called “perfectly imperfect” and the third is a spectacular shot of autumn splendor. As you mentioned, the main thing is that you had fun seeing all these marvelous sights on your day trips. See you Sunday, dear friend!
