NEK Report 9/27 - the Last Day of Heat
Posted: Wed Sep 27, 2017 12:27 pm
It is very hot and humid again here in the NEK today. The leaves have continued to stagnate their color change. This afternoon the cold front is supposed to go through with some potentially severe storms (and high winds ). The saving grace is that I think most of the leaves that had changed have fallen off and most the remaining leaves should hold on.
I got out this morning for a bit. I took advantage of the warm weather to photograph some small falls along the stream that runs along the South Wheelock Rd in Lyndon. It is not every fall that you can wade around in these mountain streams at the end of September and not freeze your legs. It was actually quite refreshing

I must have taken 50 photos trying to get this shot (that I'm still not completely happy with). I really needed an assistant to release the leaf while I kept the camera focused and released the shutter at the required moment.
