Summer's Gone; Fall is Fleeting. Pics..
and plants of summer. Up here at 5K feet elev., the perennials give it up early. There is some tree color expanding down the mtns from higher to lower elevations, but it could be a so-so color season due to the much wetter than normal growing season. The faded guys are a variety of hosta, false solomon with red fall berries and purple cone flower, (echinacea for you supplement fans.) Every day is a lil' different here from the old view, but it gets real interesting in mid Fall to early winter. Since I hadn't posted "view pics" in about a week, I felt compelled to do so.  Thanks for looking. BR,mD

I so enjoy your boring azz pics MD! Keep them coming. Now if I took fall shots you'd see them when trees started to bloom again.

Why does everyone have a nicer camera than I do? Awesome pics MD!
Looking forward to a drive along Skyline drive next weekend. This weekend seems to be just a tad before peak, and plus, the X is still in the dealer. Pontiacs aren't that fun.

bit north of us, in VA. (Also much lower elevation.) Our house/"view point" in the pics, is at 5,000 ft elev., and we are looking across the valley at 6,000 to 6,100 ft of elev. on those high peaks. The final 60 miles or so, of the Blue Ridge Parkway from Asheville, NC, to its "end" in Cherokee,NC, includes the "high point" of the BRPkway at 6100 ft. That last 60 miles is way south of where I suspect you were tooling. Hey, we never did hear about your trip! BR,mD

plants were taken with my 4 yr midgi Canon S50...not very high tech and a "pocket camera", but a helluva machine. The views were taken with my newer Minolta 5D, DSLR...not a monster or even in the same league as most of the Canon, Nikon, et al, DSLRS. I do have good lenses on that Minolta, from my old film Minolta. I shoot a lot and have been doing photography, as an amateur, for 45+ years...I think any decent cam will do the job. It takes awhile to develop the "eye", imo. Keep plugging at it. BR,mD
