I was there for the Vintage Races September 10,and 11. After the rain Friday morning, it was beautiful up there. The only thing was ,that most of the waterfalls that are pretty spectacular ,were kind of whimpy because of the lack of rain. Just imagine what they would have been like with 10 times as much water coming down.

Great shots, and nice to see change in the trees, here in Florida doesn't change colors, just falls and new leaves grow. I forgot how much Falls looks, thanks.

Nice pix! We were just up there this past weekend, too. Hit numerous wineries around Seneca and Cayuga. The foliage is beautiful. Next year we hope to do some sailing, if we can find a boat to charter.
