Photographer's Note
No spring, nor summer beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one autumnal face;
—John Donne (1572–1631) "Elegy IX: The Autumnal"
This photo was taken above the City of Fairview along Highway 31, otherwise known as Skyline Drive (A wonderful highway that traipses along between 9,000' and 11,000' mountain from the Sanpete valley on the East to Huntington and Castle valley on the west). It's not very far from where the Crandall Mine disaster happened recently.
I was taking my Mom & Dad out for a drive before the weather started to turn cold and show and shot this one right from the car window (same time as my prior photo). I didn't have time to stop and setup for any pictures...just pulled over and snapped it as quick as I could.
Nothing tricky on the camera settings...just point and shoot.

Now I can see the result of the 1960's nuclear tests in Nevada. Those trees must have absorbed an abnormal amount. Nice show.

Les couleurs d'automne sont magnifiques. Un spectacle dont je ne me lasse pas.
Amicalement
