While still not at its peak, the foliage here in North Carolina is magnificent in certain areas. This series is from the former estate of the Moses Cone family. Their 3600 acres included the house on the hill overlooking Bass Lake, as well as 25 miles of carriage trails.

I love the water in the third one and the reflections in the fifth. Great series Stan. :grin:

Great looking series Stan, but unsure which one I like the most.
The last one has a superb reflection, excellent shots.

Beautiful Stan. Will you be able to revisit in a few week's time, or will you be exploring a new state by then? ;)

Thanks, John. Unfortunately, we'll be home next week for three months or so. We've been a couple weeks early for fall foliage throughout the entire eastern US. But, that's the breaks.

Thanks, Becca. The last one was taken on a different day, when we came back for sunset. Sunset was no good, but the still water helped make good reflections.
