This afternoon Willie and I headed out to Bernheim Forest about 40 minutes south of Louisville looking for autumn color before it was too late. This view was our reward. At the crest of the forest there is a long walkway and observation deck that juts out over the forest canopy. Not only can you look down into the forest growth, but you can also get these distant views on a clear day like today. Willie volunteered to go first on the canopy walkway. He's saying "Don't look down, don't look down. . ."
All year long I've been scanning Kentucky skies, camera in hand, in order to participate in a monthly photography meme that attracts aspiring photographers from all over. The idea is that we look at our surroundings and record the changes from month to month. The host for this meme is Jan at Murrieta 365 . Here's how it works: "The goal is to capture one thing repeatedly on the first day of each month. It can be a landscape, a person, an animal, a project; whatever your focus is fine. It can be a record of where you are each first day of the month." I decided to photograph Kentucky skies.
I would love to walk there...
ReplyDeleteso beautiful.
I'll even hold Willie's paw. ha ha
This is gorgeous...a very special reward for sure! It looks like a glorious fall day to be outdoors with Willie and to soak up the beauty of your surroundings. I feel like Autumn has been ruined in our neck of the woods because of all the rain in Sept. and this past Sat. WE had 6inches of wet heavy snow that broke scores of tree limbs like they were match sticks! ~sigh~:(
ReplyDeleteWillie's a brave pup!
ReplyDeleteThese shots are just glorious - looks like you hit bountiful beauty.
ReplyDeletehow gorgeous! We don't have trees like that around here.
ReplyDeleteI make my photo collages at "picnik" a photo editing website. A lot of their stuff is free so you can check it out. It is much easier than photo shop.
