I was in the eastern Sierra a couple of weekends ago, the day after a snow storm passed though the area. It was great for photographing Mono Lake and Bodie, not so good for fall color:

Here's one from Japan. I hope you enjoy.
Sorry about the size but the smaller I made it the more it looked like it was grainy and over-sharpened. I tried all the different scaling methods and etc. Anyway, this is about as small as I could go without it looking too terrible. It still looks loads better at full size. Oh well. This was taken from about 300 feet off the ground. I got a little carried away and took 300 like this including 2 or 3 multi-image panoramas. It was so pretty. These are the natural colors and believe it or not there's no sharpening. Feel free to offer a critique if you'd like to.
I finally captured something worth posting here. I hope it matches up to the quality here. It was taken near Pitlochry in Scotland with Loch Faskally in the foreground.
Since it has to be just one.Here is mine.Just came back from a one day trip to North Carolina and the Blue Ridge Parkway.I had many shots but i liked how this one turned out.Any comments are always appreciated

Thank you. I used Photoshop, put a color version in a layer below a B&W version than manually erased the B&W leaf. I think their are better/easier ways to get the same effect but this is how I did it.

Since I don't foresee getting out to shoot again this fall, I post this one of the Comfort Maple in Pelham, Ontario, Canada - Canada's oldest sugar maple.
