I really love this time of year because nature serves up such delightful colors. While we have done this challenge in the past, I challenge you to find a creative way to highlight what you like about the current season (Fall for us in Alaska!).
Creative post processing is encouraged for those of you who know how to use your photo editors (either on computer, tablet, or mobile device).
