Autumn in Prince William Forest Park

Leaning Oak of South Valley Trail (I love the windy mountain laurel branches to the right of the oak tree)

During the last weekend of October I was fortunate to make a morning trip to Prince William Forest Park and hike along parts of the South Valley Trail that parallels South Fork Quantico Creek. There was still some autumn color left on the trees and I was so happy to photograph it.

When I returned home I did find a couple of these images weren’t quite as technically perfect as I’d have liked but overall I’m still pleased with them and feel they do a good job conveying what I was seeing and feeling that morning, and I hope they do the same for you.

Last year I had another walk through the autumnal woods of Prince William Forest Park and saw a very different set of sights.
