Photo of the day: autumn colors in Virginia Canyon, Yosemite


For anyone who thinks the autumn colors don’t show boldly outside of New England, just focus your eyes for a moment on this photo of Virginia Canyon in California. As part of Yosemite National Park, Virginia Canyon sees many travelers each years. Nonetheless, these autumn colors pop up on my radar less frequently than I wish they would. Having spent the last year in Austin, Texas, I miss the fall colors and I hope all of you surrounded by brightly colored trees this fall took advantage and soaked in the beauty fully–or are still doing so if your trees still have their leaves.

Kudos to Flickr user Misha Logvinov for this photo, which can be found in the Gadling Flickr Pool. If you’d like one of your photos to go live here on Gadling, follow in Misha’s footsteps and upload your photo(s) to the Gadling Flickr Pool.

Photo of the Day (2.2.10)

Today’s Photo of the Day was submitted by Misha Loginov – a great snapshot that utilizes light, color, and the texture of smoke captured amidst a controlled burn in the Big Basin State Park. Established in 1902, Big Basin is California’s oldest State Park, and claims more than 80 miles of trails through redwoods, waterfalls, and oak groves.
