Beautiful coppery golds and yellows positively glowing against the sombre conifers and ferns , Tim. Looks like you were just in time and a good dose of wind ,that PNW autumn rarity , will see them off .
PS : When I first saw the title , I thought something had gone wrong with the river . Silly me .
Very nice, lucky you caught them while you did with this wind the leaves are probably all history, really like the contrasting yellows in both. #1 is awesome digging how the cottonwood contrast so nicely against the background. Great catches here Tim
