Lake Saratoga panorama in October - Fuji X100F
A beautiful sunny and cool Sunday afternoon in upstate New York. I had a few minutes so I grabbed the camera and headed over to Lake Saratoga to take a few photos of the foliage with the Fuji X100F.

Snow and ice covered hills driving through the Adirondacks - F/4.0 | 1/250 SEC | ISO 200
Recently I traveled to Quebec for work. I decided to drive since the trip was only going to be three and a half hours in the car and this would be much quicker than flying. Having snowed the night before, the roads were clear, but the ground and surrounding hills were snow-covered. Driving north on the NY Northway in the early morning, rain was intermittent and the sky was overcast. As I reached the northern Adirondacks, the rain subsided and the clouds became interesting just as I was passing through the ice-covered rock-exposed hills. Having brought the Fuji X100s with me, I was able to capture some images as I traveled North. All images shown here were shot handheld in manual mode with auto ISO and autofocus.

A big October sky in the New York countryside
How quickly October has come and gone.
What started out as a subdued and muted foliage season exploded into a vibrant Fall. Due to a week of cold and wet weather in the third week, the colors quickly reached peak in the New York Capital District mid-week and by the weekend the scenery was looking well-past peak. When Sunday turned into a sunny and cool afternoon, I grabbed the Fuji X100S and headed out for a drive to find the last remnants of color.

Looking east atop the Mohawk Trail on the border of New York and Massachusetts
Sunday drives...who does not like getting away for a few hours with your favorite music (or audio book) and losing yourself in the countryside. All the better when it is a lovely Fall day in the North East and you have your camera.

Have a great day!
I have wanted to photograph this barn for quite some time. Someday I will return in the fog and rain for a black and white image hopefully...
On this Saturday, the traffic was light and the bright orange of the leaves made for a very interesting scene, so I pulled to the side of the road and took a few images. The sun was beginning to set (to the right above), thus the shadows were becoming quite long and I did not have a tripod, so I think the sharpness is a bit off.
Have a great day!
