Sierra Nevada East Side - Autumn, 2006 by Dave Wyman

The Magic of Autumn - Yosemite, 2006

Zion, Bryce and Las Vegas - A Photography Tour

Our group met in the little town of Bridgeport, on the east side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, for a weekend of photography. We would look for colorful groves of aspen trees, explore the ghost town of Bodie, and walk along the shore of weird Mono Lake. At first I was a bit disappointed with the autumn color in the trees - a cold snap and a warm spell seemed to have confused the aspens; some of them had lost their leaves, some leaves were simply turning brown, some had yet to turn, some aspens were in glorious full color. In reality, we had a wonderfully varied palette of colors to work with. Mono Lake and Bodie, views of the Sierra, mountain lakes and vast views of the desert didn't disappoint, either, weaving a visual spell of magic around and through us that I tried to comprehend through the lens of my camera.

Will Someone Please Help Me Up!

Damn - I'm old! I seem to dropped a lot of my own leaves as I approach the final season of my life. A little touch of age-related back pain made it a bit difficult to crouch down to make this photo, and even more difficult to stand again. But age is relative, and I will probably have a few falls left in me be before I lay down my cameras for the long winter.

June Lake Loop

Variety within one season: one group of aspens have completely lost their leaves, while those above are in high color - together the create a beautiful image of the meaning of autumn: change.
