The changing of seasons is heralded by nature with a spectacular explosion of colors as the deciduous trees of the temperate climes all over the world start settling down for the winter. While there is no one single factor that triggers the change, it is the combination of lowering light levels, temperature drops and other factors that cause the chlorophyll in the leaves to transform to those vibrant reds, oranges and yellows.
The greater Siberia, Central Europe, North-Eastern US, and Eastern Canada are some of the best places to observe this change of seasons. This particular image was from the Upper Peninsula region in the state of Michigan, a sunrise over Lake Superior with deep pinks in the sky complementing the rich colors of post-peak fall colors by the lake.
Here's hoping all of you get to experience a colorful fall!
