During her lunchtime, Taana Kalliainen enjoys walking along the Houghton waterfront and I'm thankful that she can take us along with her through the lens of her camera. These shots were taken a couple weeks back when the colors were still hanging on, but beginning to fade and fall.

Even though the colors aren't vivid and bright at this point in Autumn anymore, they're still something to behold and what a perfect place to view them with the Portage Canal in the midst of it all. The waterfront trail there in Houghton is a great place for a peaceful walk, run or bike ride as it winds along the canal from the Ray Kestner Park, under the Portage Lift Bridge, past the Nara Nature Trails and off to Chassell. Check out that bottom shot…you can almost hear the leaves rustling under your feet! Fall in the Keweenaw feeds so many of our senses, I think that's why it's a favorite for so many.

Very Nice. Too bad there wasn't more sun.

Very nice Taana. Would love to have a walk like that for my lunch hour. Thanks for sharing.

remaining leaves...gorgeous.

Hi
The colors against the dark, but sunlit, clouds are striking and quintessential autumn.


By Dunerat (Dunerat) on Thursday, November 3, 2016 - 09:27 am:

These images are just incredible, Taana! They show
fall days in a completely different sense --
blustery, raw, powerful. One of the great things
about shooting foliage on overcast days is that the
really bright white highlights you get in full sun
aren't present, so you see the colors as more pure
and saturated. And I love the places in these images
where small patches of sun are giving full
illumination. Wow! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Taana. I can even smell the autumn as
you look at the sunset of the colors. The trail
brings out the waning colors of fall but with the
beauty of the pictures I can even imagine the
smell of fall. Thanks.

Wonderful pictures of Autumn on it's inexorable march to winter. Thanks for sharing.

oh wow - EVERY ONE of these pics are just
gorgeous; thanks so much for sharing with us!!! :)

Wonderful!


By Taana Kalliainen (Taanarae) on Friday, November 4, 2016 - 09:19 am:

Well now, this was a surprise! I really enjoy my
lunch time walks. The majority of the trees
are bare now and we all know what's to follow.
That means that the walks on this gorgeous trail
will come to a screeching halt until the white
stuff is all melted. :)


By Scott King (Sparky79) on Friday, November 4, 2016 - 10:34 am:

Ride that trail daily when there in the summer. So nice to see it in the fall.

Love these photos. I, too, would love to walk the
trails.
