Watching the change.

Fall in the Virginia mountains can be so colorful.  The greens of late Summer often get blended with brown induced by drought or insects.  Generally,  Fall is greeted by yellows and reds that continue to intensify until the Fall winds and/or rains strip the limbs.   I love to watch the change and pay particular attention to the variation associated with the aspect of the sight (orientation of the slopes relative to the compass) and elevation.
