Fall always seems to bring dramatic skies, which is perfect for photographers because we get to capture the emotion of the atmosphere and the beauty of the location. While taking this shot it was raining lightly and the wind was bringing large waves to shore. The clouds were so low and so dark but it added a nice contrast to the white waves crashing.
Fall gives us fantastic erratic weather. One minute it will be raining, then snowing and then sunny. I actually love that the weather is that erratic because it gives us moody scenes like this. The moodiness of the sky really made this image pop. Miners Beach, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Michigan
I had been waiting for a good cling to the tree snow fall for a long time. I finally got it! I loved driving around looking for scenes like this. I spent nearly 3 hours driving around and hiking the local parks. I would have spent longer but it started to snow too much.
