Autumn Color - 2025 Album 2 - Camera Photos |
All Text & Images: Copyright (2025) |
| Album 1 consisted of 2025 foliage images taken with my drone. This album includes photos from my camera, at some of the same locations. 1 - October 17, 2025 As mentioned in the Drone Images album, when I saw that Tuni Gap Rd was indeed open, I drove up for my annual Tuni & Tusquitee Gaps foliage loop. The color was coming along, although not yet at peak. |

| 2 - October 31, 2025 With the color nearing peak, I headed back up to Tuni Gap Rd. There is a property along the way where I've stopped a couple of times in prior years to shoot a few photos, with the colorful foliage of the Tusquitee Mtns. as a nice backdrop. |
|
 |
|
| Having just photographed some Bald Cypress trees a few days ago, I noticed what looked like a Cypress in one of the ponds. It might be a Larch, another deciduous conifer, but either way, it made for a nice subject with the colorful ridge behind. |

|
| Continuing on, I headed up Tuni Gap Rd for a few more foliage photos, and to look for potential views along sections of Big Tuni Creek. |
|
 |
|
| Some nice fall color on the ridge along the road. |
|
 |
|
| Big Tuni Creek I had hoped to find some nice color along the creek, but it's mostly surrounded by rhododendron, so I focused on the creek itself. |
|
 |
|
| This is just above where the Chunky Gal Trail crosses the creek. |
|
 |
|
| There are lots of small cascades and rapids along Big Tuni Creek/strong> |
|
 |
|
| I hoped to find a spot where I could get a nice slow-shutter "swirl", but I didn't see any. |
|

|
| One more section of Big Tuni Creek. |

| More nice color along the road. |
