Autumn Moments on Wapsipinicon River

Ready or not, the seasons are changing. Blistering heat is slowly giving way to cooler temperatures and even cloudy skies that hint of rain.

I spent some time this morning documenting the ongoing seasonal transition. Some of the images were recorded while paddling while others were made during on-the-ground exploring. Each of today’s image feature the more subtle side of autumn.

The peak of fall colors is not here yet, but soon will be. Enjoy it while you can!
