Description

This little bridge took me to Jessup Trail in Acadia NP, Sept 2022. Fall colors just peeking out here and there in the trees. I never liked my August birthstone, Peridot, but I think perhaps I've changed my mind seeing its color here in nature like this.

One look at your wonderful winner, Ann - and I want to be there - taking in all the beautiful green, the warm, earthy smell of the rich soil, the crispness of the air and then, just b-r-e-a-t-h-e! This is wonderful - congrats on your Gold Win! #12013168

Thank you so much Leslie and Val, I really appreciate the feedback! I love Yosemite, I love Arches, but man oh man, Acadia was another world of simplified beauty in all directions. Val, you captured the essence of Acadia in the words I tried to convey with the photo! #12013315
