Summit county is by far the greatest place I've ever been. It's where I want to be, but wife says no.
I agree. It's the most beautiful place I have ever been. We try to go there 2 or 3 times a year. Just got back home to PA a couple of hours ago and I already am planning our next trip back. Someday we will live there, or close by. Here's another pic from our trip. We were doing some back country 4-wheeling a couple of days before the snow came.

Nice -- beautiful part of the world.

I agree. It always takes my breath away....and not just because of the lack of oxygen at these high elevations!

Yeah, the lack of air can be troublesome to a few, especially if your a smoker. One of the most beautiful places this country has to offer that I've stumbled across. Plus some of the nicest people you'll ever want to meet.HT SYSTEM-

Very beautiful fall colors! Thanks for sharing. I took the liberty of removing your shadow from one of yours, without cropping it. Didn't want to take away any of the beautiful fall scenery.

Thanks.
I subsequently went back & cropped myself out.
I've gotta admit, with some chagrin... by and large, it's a little bit prettier across the river (in VT) :- P

Where's Rick88 when you need him? Make it PG-13 again!
Though, there are some beautiful landscapes here! -
There's always room for PG, so long as beauty or truth is involved!
Fall foliage in New England -- possibly excluding Vermont -- is always true beauty!

Yeah, I know. I've been contemplating my fall routine -- get the belly mower off my John Deere and get the 60" snowblower on! Got to get ready for the onslaught -- AND pray that this winter is not like the last one.![:\](https://forum.polkaudio.com/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")

oh, yeah -- you're somewhere up this-a-way, aren't you?
Last winter was, shall we say... a late bloomer :- (
Now... thanks to the exceptional kindness of the Polk Forum's "Hermitism" -- and due to my deeply-ingrained sloth -- I am finally getting around to putting some photons through his very interesting and rather rare 85 mm (EDIT: D'oh! 80 mm... Eighty mm!) Nikkor AF lens. I cannot take advantage of the AF, so it's on an old but proud Nikon F body for some good old film photography. Further details as events warrant :- )

(sorry about the screwy color balance on the second photo. I tried to "improve" it using unfamiliar s/w... and couldn't figure out how to undo it. Fortunately, I do still have the original image on the memory card.)

Nice gift and great lens.
Those old Nikon Fs are, indeed "proud." One of my daughters signed up for a photography course in her senior year in high school. In the first class the instructor asked the students what camera they planned to use. My daughter said she could use either a whizzy new Canon 35mm SLR or her father's old Nikon F. With a big grin, the instructor said, "You'll use the Nikon, and you'll really learn how to take photographs!"
She did, and she did!
I look forward to seeing your photos with the 80 mm Nikkor AF.Family Room, Innuos Statement streamer (Roon Core) with Morrow Audio USB cable to McIntosh MC 2700 pre with DC2 Digital Audio Module; AQ Sky XLRs to CAT 600.2 dualmono amp, Morrow Elite Speaker Cables to NOLA Baby Grand Reference Gold 3 speakers.

Not a gift, a loan :- P Sorry, I unintentionally misrepresented that!
I need to get it back to him soon; thus am I finally moving my... well, you know... and getting some photos snapped with it!
You've seen my son's photoblog, yes? :- )

oh... he collects those too (and a couple of large format cameras, too)... and, of course, he lives in a little grad student apt :- P

Nice older camera's. Daughter collects them. I keep trying to get her into vintage audio stuff. Her answer is always the same. Some day Dad all your stuff will be mine anyway. So true she is...

Yeah - our son had decent hifi stuff in college; now he listens to his laptop and is happy enough. He'd rather have cameras -- which is OK, too.
