Autumn's Palette
From Grayson Highlands State Park, VA (very near NC border). I used the Orton technique.

Thanks Darren, for inviting me to join you and some other BP friends--group photo attached. It allowed me to also see parts of Tennessee, North Carolina, and West Virginia.

See group photo adjacent to this shot, in my gallery.

F7, 1/2 sec, ISO 100, 105mm focal length
