 Driving
back to Montague from my brother's house a couple days ago, I couldn't
NOT take pictures of the riot of color in the trees, forests and
farmlands.
This is a view across a swamp in Mecosta County, near a lake of the same name. |
 Red
Maples are among the first to display their autumn color and they are particularly brilliant when contrasted against green
leaves yet unturned - especially when viewed against a setting sun.
|
 Near
the White River, yellow and green dominate the landscape. The
path created by fisherman reminds me that trout only live in
beautiful places.
|
 The water runs crystal clear beneath the bridge that crosses the River at M-20 near Hesperia.
|
 The variety of color is reflected in a different perspective on the surface of the flowing water.
|
 Autumn color in the north woods is part of what makes trout streams so special.
|
 South
of Fremont I saw this farm market with a beautiful tree line on the
ridge behind a pasture where exotic animals were grazing. |
 It's rare to see American Bison anywhere, but even more so east of the Mississippi.
|
 With his magnificent rack, this Elk is an impressive animal.
|
 I don't know what breed this cow is, but the long hair makes it looks prehistoric.
|
 This
pond next to Holton Road in Muskegon County reflected the last of
the day's vibrant color as the sun was beginning to set just beyond the
tree line.
