Craig Castle at Hubbard Park Meredin CT







REAL colors , this is not juiced up!




Yale in the fall



Got artsy with this one. Converted to B&W then put back the reds and oranges only.

Even the Ivy of an Ivy league school turns colors in fall!

These are DORMS!

River Quest Cruise on the CT river

Kayaks in front of the Goodspeed opera house

Gillette castle looking out over glorious Autumn leaves

Bursts of color like this all along the river

The day was cloudy and this boat is heading back to the dock as clouds thicken

I saw 2 eagles . This one was on an island and pretty far out even for my lens to get a good picture

MORE Osprey. Milford CT




....and a Hawk who was mixing it up with the osprey

Autumns Colors Rt 8 CT & MA

More great colors of Autumn
Colebrook lake / reservoir. LOW on water but great foliage

The Farmington River CT at a roadside pullout 

Kayaker on the Farmington River; they were having a slalom run going through gates in freaking cold water! 

 Just past Otis in MA. I turned off the main road and found this inlet with these beautiful homes on the lake as the trees are changing colors

This beautiful church is in Winsted CT. We pass it many times on the way to Great Barrington and always said it would make a great fall shot. Cloud cover was coming in fast.

I finally found the location where the osprey feed and why they are here later then normal this year; an abundance of fish!! Bunker by the thousands are coming into the harbor in Milford CT to escape the blue fish in LI sound creating a sushi buffet for the young osprey. The parents are long gone to get to FL and points south, the young-ins like all the easy food. This weekends cold snap may send them running ( flying).


This is NOT a hatchery, bunkers by the thousands in the harbor.
