I’m back from a wonderful photo trip to the Hudson River Valley region of New York. I’d spent some time there earlier this year and knew I wanted to go back in hopes of seeing and photographing fall foliage in the area. I managed to time my trip perfectly and got to spend several days in awe of all the shades of red, orange, yellow and green I was seeing.
I did some quick edits on some of the photos I took while I was on the road and I thought I’d share some of them with you today.

Now that I’m home, I’m looking forward to photographing more fall color here in the DC area . . . and already planning for another trip to the Hudson River Valley next year.
