The crisp November air called me to the North Georgia mountains last Monday. Now, "mountain" is a stretch of the definition since the highest peak in the state is Brasstown Bald (4,784 feet doesn't qualify as a mountain for anyone native to anywhere west of the Rockies), but the fall colors still manifest in brilliant yellows, oranges, and reds.
Even though the colors were past peak at the top of Brasstown Bald (it's a short, but steep hike to the top), it couldn't have been a more beautiful day. Colors at lower elevations were still vivid, although I couldn't capture the intensity even shooting in RAW format. Some of the yellows were nearly painful to look at because they were so bright.
Spending a day alone enjoying God's creation was just what I needed to refresh my spirit.

Hey - nice pictures. Sounds like a nice place to take a long walk. I love the first picture with the leaves falling. It has looked like it was raining here there were so many falling at one time. Now we just wait for spring!!(with a few snowstorms in between.)
