It is time to empty the jar, so to speak. While I tend to post my favourite images at the time, I found some more adequate leftovers. Actually, I don't consider every image from initial postings to necessarily be good or a fave. Sometimes, I just post as part of the story, as it were. For example, the Wheeler's Sugar Camp photos were hardly exceptional, but they were a record of the outing, which is pretty much what blogging is all about.
Since I just mentioned Wheelers once again, I do have a few more photos. First, let me show you a photo from October 14 this year, followed by a photo from October 15 2016.
I have one more photo from Wheeler's. See the big boulder? It is a glacial erratic, deposited by a receding glacier, perhaps 20 000 years ago. Erratics can be much bigger than this, but this is about the size that we see in this particular bush. There are others strewn throughout the property. You can also see the sap lines in the foreground.
Back to the foggy morning shoot with Bob, he sent me two other photos. He gets his photos done quickly and then has time to . . . er . . . shoot me.
I think there is only one more to go. I photographed this abandoned barn near Tennant Cemetery. Last year's photo of the same was better because I included the road, but I didn't want to take the exact same photo this year. Besides that, the conditions were a little better last year.

I like the way you discuss your approach to a photo and what you like ad dislike about the results. I also like your fried including you in his photos to personalize the post. As a photographer I learn so much from others and read posts such as these ore closely.
You have had some beautiful colour & sunshine in your region. A glacial erratic, I've never heard that term before.
I especially enjoyed this post, with the comparisons to other years...as well as seeing the photographers at work. Only a photographer would be walking in the dewy long grass beside the road, rather than down the road itself!
The fall colors are so beautiful. What a treat for sore eyes!
I've been taking a progression of photos of the hill out beyond our house. Trying to capture the leaf color emerging and then leaves disappearing. One day I'll post those on my blog.
I always enjoy the analyses of your photos. I too like to chronicle my experience by adding pictures, even if they don't perfectly represent what I'm writing. Most often they kick start my post by helping me figure out what to say.
I enjoyed these very much, especially that one with you adding some color. :-)
Nice comparisons. we learn by making comparisons of photos as we see the differences.
These are wonderful takes.
Some great pictures both years. Great tree color in the last.
Beautiful photos but what I really like is learning the term 'glacial erratic.' It seems like a title in search of a story.
Never say never. Just in passing, you might consider cropping the penultimate shot square. Could be interesting.
You take good fall fotos. But I like the first one OF you better.
We never tire of the colours of fall, do we?
What a lovely outing!
Poor JB drives in order for me to do drive-by shootings. He likes reading the blog to see where we've been!
I love the picture of you far off in the fog.
I love photos of woods and fog. These are beautiful.
