Hello Christine, yes this makes for a wonderful panorama from the living room window.  Thanks!  John

Hello Steve, we've had them for a few weeks now.  We are about 50 or so miles above the 45 Parallel (the north end of Salem Oregon has the 45th running right through it) so we are well into the leaf-drop period now.  Thanks!

Hello Ellen, I was able to catch the light just right, with the fog retreating and the morning sun breaking through.  Thanks!  John

Hello Chris, Felida has some nice spots for Fall color, mixed in with a little bit of morning fog from the Columbia River and Salmon Creek.  Makes for fun, and sometimes frustrating photo shoots!  Thanks!  John

Hello Lee and Carol, this is a favorite time of the year to get out and see the Fall colors -- 'cause if you don't Get Out, they'll be gone all too soon!  John -- PS - we'll have to schedule a fall trip to NC to see those mountains (are those Gem hunting locations still open in the Fall?)

Hi Jenny, I'm hoping to get an even better stitched photo this week if the weather will cooperate.  Even getting outdoors to find a shot is worth it this time of year.  The colors are gone way too soon it seems.  Thanks!  John
