Sept. 25 Workshop - Mike Brice

I want to thank the Ogden Valley Business Association for arranging these workshops, and I want to thank members of the Ogden Camera Club for their tour of some great Ogden Valley sites for fall colors. It was worth it getting up early on a Saturday morning to see the great light and enjoy the company of fellow photographers. Here are a few of the images that I captured. Still a lot to review and edit, but these jumped out at me. Thanks again.

Hot Air Balloons Add to the Fall Color

There is always a sense of happiness when I return to Ogden Valley from a trip. I can't help breaking into a smile just as soon as I see Pineview. I may be biased but there just aren't many places with the spirit and beauty of OV.

I must say, however, that I was surprised and a bit pleased that the fall colors have not hit their peak yet. Every Saturday morning, I go out to my deck to see if the hot air ballons are flying. The sun today bounced off the blue & red envelope of the solo balloon and enhanced the view of the emerging fall colors. I think a hot air balloon ride might be the perfect way to enjoy a fall color sunrise.

In Nordic Valley, there are patches of red from the maples but the scrub oaks are holding onto their green hues. My bet is that the peak may be next weekend.

Add On

Even more beauty.

Ogden Fall Workshop Sept. 18th

Just a few I took while at the workshop.  It was beautiful, the mentors were very helpful, and I hope to participate again in one of the remaining two workshops!  Thanks!

FALL IS IN THE AIR

Well we had a great time enjoying the beautiful colors of fall. This is just a sneek preview of what is to come. The colors will only get better over the next few weeks. So grab your camera and come and take a peek. Enjoy!
