Vermont and New Hampshire are spectacular viewing platforms for fall leaf peeping. The combination of Beech, Maple, Oak & Birch trees create a bomber variety of color (red, orange and yellow)!
What really kicks things over the top however is the fall weather combined with a heavy dose of reflecting ponds. How so? First off, you have an environment with a lot of humidity and cold evenings. That causes the ground to cool off and produce low-lying morning fog…which is very photogenic. You also have some great cloud cover which can be reflected in these ponds.
The problem is how to view these? Until 7 years ago, you needed to get in a plane or chopper to really get the visual impact of the sky reflected in these bodies of water. Not any longer! With sophisticated drone tech, you can photograph this imagery from above. Pretty groundbreaking.
BTW in case you’re wondering where I was finding these cool scenes, the trip was based out of Montpelier, Vt and the area close to Conway, NH. BTW…there are some pretty cool things to view back on the ground!
