It's that time of year. The time in between the scorching heat and the bitter cold. The time when days become shorter. The time to harvest. The time of the year that I consider to be the most beautiful. I love Autumn. I love the colors of the leaves. I love the smell. I love the weather...it's usually not too hot and not too cold...usually. :) Last weekend I went on a road trip to Spearfish Canyon in the Black Hills to take pictures of the pretty colors. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a disappointing trip. It rained the whole time (just my luck...it was super nice the whole week before...almost too hot). Yes there were pretty colors to see, but they just aren't quite as pretty when there is a cold, wet fog surrounding everything. I did manage to get some fairly decent pictures at Roughlock Falls, but I had to use Photoshop Elements to enhance the color a little because they turned out too dull and dreary (due to the fog and rain). Next weekend I get to attend a wedding at Roughlock Falls and I'm hoping that the sun is shining and there is still some color to see.
This is North of Harrison in Monroe Canyon.
