Congratulations to Ross Martin for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 7 votes - View Previous Winners
I can’t think of this state without the line from a John Denver song springing to mind, “Almost heaven, West Virginia”. During my six weeks of fall shooting this year I was able to spend some time in WV, and it certainly felt heavenly. There is a lot of exploring to do in this region and it beckons me to go back again and again. I hope this set gives a glimpse of some of the beauty that grabbed my heart there in October. Thank you for viewing!
Excellent collection. Ten years ago, I spent more than a month touring WV in the fall. I thoroughly enjoyed all the waterfalls and fall colors. It is a wonderful place, so thanks for the reminder.
Ross, looks like you had a great fall trip. This set is top notch just like the others. The first image is a standout to me and I like the way u composed it and separation of gray and red makes it my favorite. 👍🏻
Happy Holidays

Oh man, a month in WV during autumn? That had to be fantastic Stan!

Really appreciate your kind words! That first scene is one of my favorites.

Superb set. The last image is very special.
Thanks so much Rajan! I had to use 400mm on that last image to isolate. I'm so glad you like it. I need to print it soon, I think it will have a bit of painterly feel on Canson Edition Etching Rag which is a fine art paper I'm in love with.

Superb set! I like your, "Last Show" the best. Those late fall images are a nice break from the usual canopy of solid color.
Thank you! That final image is my personal favorite from this WV trip and I love late season when leaf drop adds so much texture and breaks up the typical solid mass of color as you noted.
