Each Grand Prize winner received $50 cash from the OVBA plus an 11" by 14" Gallery Canvas Wrap from The Imaging Depot, in Ogden, UT.

Thanks to the mentors and participants– we had our weather challenges, but I think everyone had fun and hopefully learned a few things – I know I did!

This seems the longest autumn ever!

Just off Highway 162, what a surprise.

There is an uprooted cottonwood tree on the north side of the middle inlet that made a terrific picture frame.

These willow leaves in Spring Creek look like liquid gold.

Wonderful color right in my own back yard.

lazy leaf-peeping

You don't need to work too hard right now to see great color. Rent a place to stay up in the valley, picnic in a park, or sit by the reservoir: they've all got color nearby today.

Whole valley is lit up today

The color just keeps getting better. Here is a mix of color from the North Ogden Pass, the Old Highway fishing site on Pineview Reservoir and the Wolf Creek Canyon trail on the way to Powder Mountain. I got around the valley today!

Definitely Fall Feeling Pictures

I realize that I am a bit behind the chronology of this blog, but below are some photos from a prior workshop at Pineview Reservoir, near Eden, Utah. It was a cloudy morning and definitely gave the feel of fall, so I chose to post these photos that remind me of that feeling.
