Fall in Juneau, Alaska #3442

I shot this image at Moose Lake in the Dredge lake area of the Mendenhall Glacier Recreation Area. Juneau can be extremely wet during the fall and is not famous for its fall colors (unlike Interior Alaska which can rage with fall colors). With some luck and a few dry spells every once in a ...
