Fall into Winter - A flashback to the Maroon Bells area in late September, 2004. Gorgeous to see a fresh dusting of snow on the peak fall color! #autumngold #fallintowinter #maroonbells #maroonbellswilderness #autumnfoliage #colorado #coloradoautumn #autumnsnow #layersofcolor #autumntranquility (at Maroon Bells)

More beauty from the Michigan Upper Peninsula. #autumnfoliage #autumncolor #autumntranquility #puremichigan #michiganupperpeninsula #upperpeninsula #michiganup #fallfireworks #autumnfireworks #autumngold #wideanglelens #wideanglewednesday

Some late-season (November 4th) Fall Color at Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Although the color change starts much earlier at the highest mountaintop elevations (usually well underway there by mid-October), you can often still find plenty of good color at lower elevations in early November. #greatsmokymountainsnationalpark #greatsmokymountainsnp #autumn2017 #autumnfoliage🍂🍁 #autumncolor #autumntranquility #orangeleaves #fallfireworks #autumnfireworks (at Great Smoky Mountains National Park)

“Sand and Sky” at White Sands National Monument - a beautiful, surreal place that everyone should visit! Its ideal for creative color or black-and-white photography. For most of the day, I had great conditions - sun, occasional clouds, and low winds. Didn’t even have to use the zip lock bags for the DSLR equipment, and never thought twice about taking my iPhone out for pictures like this. 😊 #sandandsky #whitesandsnationalmonument #whitesands #WSNM #abstractlandscape #sanddunes #dunes #clouds #puffyclouds #gotclouds #alamogordo #newmexico (at White Sands National Monument)

Horseshoe Bend in Page, AZ. Even at the widest setting, an iPhone can only capture this much. The sun is too low to illuminate the entire ‘horseshoe’ this time of year, so waiting until it goes down seems best for images. Be very careful near the edge, and bring a flashlight to help guide your trip back to the parking area! #horseshoebend #pageaz #pageaz🌵 #waterscape #tonedimage (at Horseshoe Bend)
