***Mini Challenge #716 - Fall Colors ***
3

This weeks challenge will be a familiar topic and a current event at the same time -- Fall Colors. It doesn't make any difference on how much or little there is in the picture. Be creative by letting your imagination run wild.

The challenge will end at 9pm PDT on Tuesday, November 1, 2022.

Some examples will follow

Challenge Rules:

The host gives you a topic and you post up to three images that fit. Remember, it's all about fun, sharing, and learning. Any picture you have taken in person is eligible, regardless of the time taken, camera, or post-processing used. The host chooses the winners and honorable mentions and posts those in a new thread. The host's decision is final. The winner of this challenge then hosts the next challenge, judges the winner of that one, and so on it goes. The winner of this challenge will have 48 hours to post the next challenge. If that doesn't happen, 2nd place will have 24 hours to do so, then it's up to 3rd place.

Submission Posting Guidelines:

Post each one of your three submissions in its own reply to this post. Give each post a unique Subject, please. It is best to embed an image in its post rather than linking to somewhere else. Feel free to post photos "for exhibition only" if you want to share more than three, or won't be available to host the next challenge. Try to preserve the EXIF please, so we can see which camera, lens, and settings were used.

Comment Posting Guidelines:

Feel free to post comments on the images or ask for comments. Don't hesitate to click on the green "Like" thumb on the top right of the post, so we know which images were most popular. Likes are appreciated as much as constructive criticism is. The host can make up his or her own mind without being influenced by that. I wish you all "good luck" and let's see some interesting pics.

Outside Bellaire, MI at the peak of fall color.  Best in years.

I've been out of town for the majority of the past three weeks, more or less. But since I'm in Louisiana (where we have basically no fall color) there's nothing for me to contribute here.

We have less than 2 days left in this challenge and it looks like Richard is going to be our #1 winner, more or less by default. 
Doesn't anyone have Fall Color pictures?
