It looks like Sunday morning will be a time to get up early and go looking for that first frost. It's one of those things that can be a boon or a bust. Still, making the effort must be made if any shots are obtained at all.
In the mean while, today was to end the hunt for those magical leaves of distinction. Most of the big ones have now fallen long ago and been crushed by foot traffic or bike traffic or tires pressed up against the curbs. There isn't much in open fields as the wind this past Sunday night pretty much carried those miles and miles away. There was some luck finding a few nice ones, however. I started around the first of September so the hunt has been on-going until today. Besides--it's Michigan/Ohio State weekend coming up next weekend and the camera will be in the bag that day for sure. This coming weekend before Thanksgiving will be pretty much an indoor kitchen event. The day after Thanksgiving will be slow, but then....as broadcaster Bob Ufer has said for years: "Michigan football is a religion and Saturday is the Holy Day of Obligation".
