Here is my entry to the Neoxian City Photo Challenge. The topic is "Autumn," which is fortunately a favorite subject of mine at this moment!
For weeks I have been getting out on photo walks every chance I get. I've posted some of the pictures I'm providing here in various blog posts, but this will be the best of the best. These pictures represent my top picks of all the photos I have taken this fall.
As one of the contest requirements is to share the location of the picture, I will organize them by where they were taken.
"Purgatory" Dog Park
I walk my dog at this park often. She gets to be off the leash and she loves to run and play there.
The Path Near My Office
There is a wonderful trail right outside my office where I can walk for miles through woods, past residential areas and through an enormous park. I often go out after work, although I will not be able to do so for much longer as the days are getting shorter.
Centennial Lakes
This is my favorite urban park. I've gone there several times this fall, on my own for a solitary walk and with my family.
Regional Walking Trail
These pictures are from another favorite trail, which I regularly walk with my husband. We like to go year 'round, in any weather. But there is some lovely foliage along the trail this time of year.
North Shore - Grand Marais, MN
The area we call "The North Shore" is a long stretch of coast running along Lake Superior in Northern Minnesota. My girls and I took a trip up there this fall and stayed in the beautiful town of Grand Marais. The leaves were just starting to turn.
The Streets of My Home Town
The following is by far the largest set. I very often just set out from my home in Minnesota and walk around the local neighborhoods where there are some absolutely stunning trees. They are beautiful when they are green, and even more beautiful when they turn colors in the fall. These pictures were taken on about three or four such walks.
About the Camera
I wish I could say I was using a really nice Nikon or Canon, but the fact is, all of these pictures were taken with my trusty iPhone X.
Thanks so much for visiting my post!
