Watkins Glen State Park

[marc2242]

I'd been wanting to visit Watkins Glen for a while, and finally made it late last fall. It's a popular place and I knew I didn't want people in my photos, so I got there as soon as the park opened and fortunately was able to get the shots I wanted without the crowd. It was a little cold and a weekday, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but within an hour or two the trail was pretty crowded. If you're interested in more photos and a writeup about the park you can see it here https://loadedlandscapes.com/watkins-glen-state-park/

Being a car guy, you can imagine the first thing that popped into my head. :-) These shots are terrific! Really nice detail in the rock face. Have you thought about printing one of them? Were it me, I would have already printed the first shot. ;-)

Really great photos, I particularly like #1. Were these taken in the fall? We see a few coloured leaves on the ground but most of the vegetation looks green. Thanks for the link to your write up on the park. This is certainly a readily accessible park from where I live in Ottawa so I think I'll plan a long weekend visit to the area in the spring.

Thanks! Yes, the photos were taken in early-mid October. I planned the trip in advanced based on when I thought the fall colors would be at peak, but the fall was unusually warm so things had only just started to change colors.

Nice series.

I was thinking the same thing, but pleasantly surprised by the subject nonetheless.

My dear Marc2242 -- these are two nice shots, excellent in fact...but there is something missing--Your Profile. It will be nice if you fill in the two areas there like we all do:
1) your location on earth
2) and the name you want us to call you as.
