Autumn Oasis

October is here, therefore, time to get the autumnal glasses on.  Fall color has started here, but is probably a good couple of weeks away from being at peak.  Maybe even three depending on the weather.  But, I have to start practicing catching the fall color shots since my 2nd annual trip to upper Michigan is just a few days away. From all reports, the U.P. is just about to hit their peak so I should be there either during the peak or just on the edge of the downward spiral of all the leaves.  Either way, I'm sure I'll grab some good shots.  Here's one I got today that was like being in an "autumnal zone".  It seemed this little area had deep fall colors already, before most any other spots. And the cloudy threatening skies acted like one big softbox to give a nice glow to the foliage
