Eastern Sierra - Chasing Fall Color

Kathy and I have spent the last week chasing fall color up and down the Eastern Sierra.  This picture is of North Lake near Bishop California.

Convict Lake Reflection

Bishop Creek Canyon

Sunlight streaming through aspens.  Leaves were already falling in many of the canyons.  We caught peak color in Bishop Creek Canyon and Red Rock Creek.

South Bishop Creek below South Lake
I liked the reflected color in the creek.

Today we went back to this spot and the branch over the creek was bare.

Milky Way over Convict Lake
Convict lake was a dark spot and this made it easy to capture this picture of the Milky Way

Kathy and I drove up Green Creek for this shot.  After seeing a few hunters sporting long guns we decided this was not a good spot for us to be hiking.

So we returned to Bishop Creek 

Cold weather has moved in so many of the trees are losing their leaves.

One of my favorite pictures of the trip.

Hope you enjoyed the pictures.
