Autumn in pictures

I thought I'd feature some photos of Fall today as the temperatures drop, the trees start to turn those magnificent colors, and the waves come crashing in to the shores of our Great Lakes.

copper country explorer shows us the turning leaves in the U.P.
(Today) we take a look at the Cliffs from an early morning vantage point. This photo was taken just yesterday, so it is about as up to date as you can get. While the colors are out and flourishing, peak is still probably a good week away.

As for where we took this unique view of the Cliffs, I think I'll let that be a secret for now. Lets see if anyone out there can figure it out.
Do you know the location? And, will you tell us too? Be sure to click on the photo to view the full size image.

Jolli Lodge features a photo of the big waves rolling in on Lake Michigan over the past few days, a sure sign of Fall in Northern Michigan.
The wind gods have been good to all kiteboarders and windsurfers lately:-) The wind was 30-40 out of the NW the other day. The waves were huge by the harbor in Leland with 6 kiteboarders and 6 surfers out.
And Giancarlo Rinna highlights the deep blue sky in his pick for yesterday.

I think the most striking image is this last one from Michigan in Pictures. It's entitled Chapel River Scene by photographer jsorbieus. michpics writes:
This photo is part of a set of photos that show the beginnings of fall color on the UP’s rivers & waterfalls.

The color is coming people!
