These look like a pretty nice surprise, Ian! I was also out shooting some fall foliage the other day as well, except it was pouring rain that day so i camped out under my umbrella to get the shots! Nicely done, and thanks for sharing.

Four fall pictures (say that after a couple of beers) with great colour and style, and I saw the squirrel too, if you're going to post 'find the animal' pictures Ian they need to be harder, nicely done mate
