Since coming home from the Tetons I had been taking a bit of a break from photography until my friend Rosalind suggested I join her on a trip to Mt. Rainier on Friday, October 25.  By the time Friday came, it was pretty clear that there wouldn’t be any fall colors left at Rainier so we decided to take a drive up Hood Canal.  This was a great time to explore not only the canal, but also some of the side roads that follow rivers like the Duckabush, Dosewallips, and Hamma Hamma.  We really were a bit too late for colors, but still found some great streams to photograph as well as lots of “fallen color” on the forest floor.

Here is a sampling of what I shot that day. For the complete gallery, click here.
