snowstormcanuck Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I tried to get a canopy shot, but we're still 1-2 weeks shy of peak colour and it wasn't the best day for it anyway. I took this one more for the cloud formations. Foliage not that impressive at all. There are some exceptions though: The red tree in middle was so vibrant. Even though I had my camera on the foliage setting, it still didn't do it justice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geos Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 -SSC. Nice pictures! Even though you're not at peak, there is some very colorful trees about. I like the last two the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michsnowfreak Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Posted these in the photog section, but what the heck, ill copy and paste it here as well. Went up north Oct 9-12th and the color was at peak, actually past peak in a few places (we are now at peak here in SE MI...will try to take some pics here this week too). It was blustery and November-like, but the cold and clouds & rain showers didnt dampen the color, and I was also treated to some snow! Below are pics on the drive up to Mackinac, October 9, 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 October 10, 2012... Starting in Mackinac then driving through the Upper Peninsular, visiting the famous Cut River Bridge, then heading to near the shores of Lake Superior, Tahquamenon Falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 October 10, 2012 cont...while hiking at Tahquamenon Falls, the light drizzle became big wet snow showers, the snow even slushing up on colder surfaces a bit! Fall, the falls, and snow at the same time was quite a sight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IWXwx Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Great photos! Looks like you had wonderful trip. Thanks for posting. Yep, Northern MI is the prime location if you like snow and lots of it. weatherbo made the smart move by relocating up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Those Falls pictures MIsnowfreak are awesome. Must have have been awesome to see snow falling again. Took few pictures today of fall colors nearby. Hardwoods are about the only trees with vibrant color now. Birch Sugar maple Japanese maple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Great pics everybody...I posted the northern MI photos last week, now for the southeast Michigan quota. The area metroparks are so scenic and enjoyable you forget you are smack-dab in the middle of metro-Detroit! cont... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartyOn Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 Just returned yesterday from Otsego county. Probably more to do with the heavy stands of conifers than anything else. But it was virtually well past peak for colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartyOn Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 The oak fields and hardwoods of the southern lower peninsula are on fire. Compared to the mostly conifer forests of the northern lower. Well past peak north of a line from Bay county. These 5 shots were taken on Saturday up in Otsego county. You can clearly see the differences in forest types and color between north and south. BTW Great pics Josh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michsnowfreak Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Very dark, gray day today. Colors well past peak here in SE MI, Id say we peaked a good 7-10 days early today. Some strands of trees look completely like mid-winter, though others still have quite a bit of color. Took a few pics, I actually like dark autumn days sometimes!
