A look back at Here and There No. 1
We had some perfect fall weather over the last week, and I was able to get outside quite a bit and take advantage of it. Here are a few of the images I captured.

Fernleigh Estate Stone Bridge
This is a short walk along the Susquehanna River where it leaves Otsego Lake. The old stone bridge and short trail are worth the visit. Especially in October. The leaves here were just starting to change during this visit.
This door again
I’ve photographed this door before, and I will again. I’ve taken photos of it in almost every season.
Country roads
Central NY has begun peaking. Some places just before, and some are just past. Here are a couple more scenes I found this week in my travels.
I’ve posted before about rural street photography, and this is it! Driving along back roads instead of walking sidewalks, looking for rural landscapes. I can find old barns, farm machinery, a lone tree in a field… our area is currently putting on a show, and it will quickly be gone.
When I took this photo, these clouds were moving quickly across the sky, and the light and shadow were changing from one minute to the next. I waited for the “spotlight” to shine on this side hill to highlight the color.
Cooperstown
Cooperstown’s streets are quiet this time of year. The museums and many of the shops close by 5, and only a few people are here after tourist season. It’s a good time to photograph the town. I come back often this time of year, and can usually find something interesting.
