"Melancholy"
The second of my 3-part foggy foliage series, this image captures a darker mood to the usually cheerful time of year. This land was logged many years ago and the new growth hosts a full spectrum of fall color. I appreciated the ominous feeling that the intermittent mature trees added to the scene. In the full resolution photo (this can print over 4 ft tall), you can just make out a group of 15-20 turkeys grazing through the field, undisturbed by the torrential that had just passed through.
