Upper Peninsula Fall Foliage

Yooper foliage rivals the famed New England Fall Foliage

Ah, fall in the Michigan Upper Peninsula. The time of year when Mother Nature takes out her paintbrush and transforms the landscape into a riot of vibrant colors. As you drive along the winding roads, you can’t help but feel like you’re driving through a giant kaleidoscope. From the fiery oranges to the deep purples, every turn offers a new burst of beauty that will leave you breathless…and maybe a little dizzy.

But let me tell you, experiencing fall foliage in the UP is not all about picturesque scenes and scenic drives. Oh no, my friends! It’s also about becoming an expert leafologist. You see, there are different types of leaves out there that I guarantee you’ve never heard of before. Like the Flutterleaf – these little buggers have tiny wings that make them dance on the breeze. Or how about the Sparkleleaf? These leaves are covered in tiny crystals that catch the sunlight and make them shimmer like diamonds as they fall to the ground.

So don’t just settle for your average autumn experience this year. Head up to Michigan’s Upper Peninsula and immerse yourself in a world where even the leaves have tricks up their sleeves (or should I say branches?). Get ready for nature’s very own color show and be prepared for surprises around every corner – because when it comes to fall foliage in Michigan UP, nothing is as it seems…except for one thing: pure magic awaits you!

Just in case you need some fall foliage colors for your wall, this is available as a print on your choice of surfaces. Available with Free Shipping at: https://www.pictorem.com/855874/Fall%20Foliage%20Michigan%20Upper%20Peninsula.html

Autumn at Coursey Pond In Frederica, DE

We rival the colors of New England fall foliage right here in Delaware.

The first hint of autumn is always a welcome sign after a long, hot summer. In Delaware, the turning of the leaves signals the start of fall celebrations and all things pumpkin. One of the best places to enjoy the crisp autumn air is at Coursey Pond in Frederick.

This beautiful autumn scene was captured at Coursey Pond in Frederica, Delaware by Bill Swartwout Photography. It appears to be two scenes in one, with the colorful fall foliage and brilliant blue sky being reflected in the still waters of Coursey Pond.

The Coast of Bar Harbor, Maine Is Ablaze in Colorful Splendor

Autumn is an awe-inspiring time of year in New England, an area in the northeastern United States. While each region in the six state area experiences this colorful shift, Maine and Vermont are said to boast the most beautiful and respected foliage in the world. Enjoy New England fall foliage via the medium of photography.

Visiting New England in the fall is wonderful! The weather is cool, but sunny, and the brisk air just invigorates you. There really is nothing like the coast of Maine in October when it comes to vibrant color everywhere, and a favorite stretch of coast on which to experience this phenomenon has got to be Bar Harbor and environs.

Fall foliage along the coast of Bar Harbor, Maine, is awash in palette of color as far as the eye can see. Bar Harbor’s park like setting and brilliant fall foliage make it one of the most attractive and interesting places to visit during New England’s autumn season, or any season. Thanks to Mother Nature all this beauty is free for everyone to enjoy.

New England Fall Foliage Bar Harbor, ME
Fall is a great time for a visit to New England. Cool weather and beautiful fall foliage, create glorious colorful scenes like this one from Bar Harbor, Maine.

Tourists from all over the United States, as well as from faraway foreign lands, come to see the spectacular fall foliage coloring. We viewed scenes such as the one above while on a cruise on the www.RoyalCaribbean.com ship, Grandeur of the Seas. Many are photographers who capture the scene with their cameras – but few can capture Mother Nature’s glory like friend, colleague and New England native, Jeff Folger (AKA Jeff Foliage) and his wonderful New England Fall Foliage photography. I find his “New England From Above” collection to be beautiful and utterly fascinating.
