I can no longer deny that autumn has arrived. It snowed a lit­tle last night, and rained most of the day. After my work day, I went for a walk and got caught in a pretty heavy rain shower, accom­pa­nied by thun­der. The leaves were bril­liant reds, oranges, and yel­lows against a grey blue sky. I had to admit, that yes, fall has arrived.

It was quiet and calm day, and then I got a phone call from Sarah say­ing that she had been in a car acci­dent on the way home. That kind of ruined the evening. She’s okay. Sorting out repairs and insur­ance will be a pain, but luck­ily that is the worst we’ll have to deal with.

This is the “best” elk shot I got. It’s cropped to around 25%, and not a very sharp image, but it’s a good clas­sic pose. I really want to get back down there before it starts snow­ing heav­ily and try again, but I just don’t have the time. The week­ends, it’s appar­ently bumper to bumper in the park.

I need some kind of grant so I can take six months and focus on noth­ing but pho­tog­ra­phy. Hahaha.
