Hey Daniel,

Very sweet! These are just super autumn shots. My favorites are #2 and 3. But all of them look really nice.

A very nice set. You really have proven it is possible to work with the weather you have and still end up with some very memorable shots. The colors are superb, and the compositions are simple and effective to my eye.

Excellent series, looks like 2 days of camping in the rain really paid off. I really like the first shot, did you use a ND filter to capture the motion in the coulds?

great set, the second really draw you in, great contrast between the color in the leaves and the gray of the fog.

All your shots are really beautiful Daniel. They have mood, color and are beautifully composed. Hard to pick one. I like them all.

Thanks, everyone. Mtnshooter, I used a gnd filter to hold back the exposure in the sky, but did not need any extra filters. That one was shot before sunrise and I was actually trying to speed up the shutter speed to avoid motion blur from wind blown leaves and clouds.

Very nice set. Really like #s 2 and 4. #4 would seem right at home in Backpacker magazine....

Lovely set, Daniel, again. Really love the 2nd....the misty conditions and wonderful fall colors work very nicely here, and you gotta love the red carpet path.

The atmosphere and color of the second shot really portray the area well. Do you happen to have a portrait version of this to really emphasize the verticality of the trees and trail?
