Fall color, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park

Fall in the boreal forest, aspen tree trunks, Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve, Alaska.

Hey Folks,

A quick visit back to September; the boreal forest is a melange of color in the fall. The vibrancy of the Alaska woods in the fall is a function, perhaps, of the speed at which the dramatic changes take place. The green foliage of summer glimpses the oncoming winter and is gone in the blink of an eye; one last hurrah of color before settling in, nestled beneath the whites of winter.

Cheers

    Hey folks,

    Thanks, I appreciate it. Mark, I’m not sure – but it works well. It’s probably related to the “rule of the 3rds” – some folks say 3 is the magic number .. the “golden mean” was what the ancient greek artists referred to it as – the universe is divided by 3rds – the heart is placed on the 3rd … all kinds of stuff, most of which I forget now. 🙂

    Cheers

    Carl
