The Beauty of Autumn

This weekend, I traveled to Oglebay Park in West Virginia for their annual OglebayFest. It is a craft fair, county fair and Oktoberfest all rolled into one.

The lodge itself is nestled in hills of West Virginia near Wheeling. The drive there was beautiful, but the location itself was incredible. It was the perfect time of year to enjoy the fall colors.

This tree was one of the first to really turn and leaped out of the landscape.

Snow Covered Tree in Tremont

After some early morning shoveling, I decided to adventure out into Tremont for a walk. I took my camera with me. Right down the street was this tree bathed in light from the street light overhead.

The original picture has an interesting yellow light being cast, but I thought the black and white version showed more of the beautiful contrast of the tree, the light and the snow.
