Nice set John.

I was in Atlanta over the thanksgiving weekend. A friend took me to Stone Mountain as it is a popular tourist attraction. Here are a couple of images.

A view of Stone mountain with some remnants of fall colors.

Went up to the lake to get this view.

All are drone images as that is the only thing I had with me at that time.

Jameel, thanks for sharing this series—drone capture is always a welcome perspective and these images reflect that. I especially favor the second image but all are well seen and captured.

Early November is the best time to hit up the Portland Japanese Garden for fall color:

A visit to Sweet Creek with some heavy wildfire smoke warming up the colors in the scene:

More recent captures from this fall include this image from the Columbia River Gorge:

And one from the North Fork of the Siuslaw River:

Wow, you guy really set a high bar for landscapes in November! ;)

I don't usually do a lot of shooting in November and here are a few of mine from the archive.

Alan, beautiful collection of November images—the Sweet Creek capture is my favorite, good composition and color too! This Japanese Portland Garden image is one of my favorites you’ve taken there. The North Fork Siuslaw drone image is especially nice revealing the surprising river flow.

Larry, you found three great November images––the Wolf Creek Pass landscape is my favorite, nice composition of these two pines! And the Rocky Mountain Park image is equally nice as well––a beautiful landscape you've shared.

Thank you for the nice comments John, appreciated. ;)
The lack of snow on Wolf Creek Pass in November is very unusual, most years they have 10 ft or more of snow by late November. The road over the pass was dry and only a little snow off the roads, this photo was taken on November 27th, 2012.

Firstly, what a great set of images, truly some amazing stuff posted.

Secondly - well, very interesting. I simply do not have hardly any images taken in November. I am often shooting astro images this month but not so much scenic stuff. Too late this year, but I will have to try to remedy that in the future.

The 2 I did come across are from 2015 in New Mexico (and actually were on at a location we had travelled to to shoot astrophotogrtaphy - but were out during th day imaging a few other things...)

This one is the view right outside the house we rented to astro image from:

And this one was on a river that feeds the reservoir:

Mike, two great November images, glad you ventured out in the daylight for the first image—very nice! I’m sure the astro images were especially nice with this location. The autumn colors of the trees and their reflection and the red rock beyond contrast nicely with the blue sky—very nice image.
