Fall colors from 1000 feet......

Finally got a chance to get up in a Piper Cub today and take some shots of the changing leaves. Not much near Babbitt, but as we got nearer the North Shore, the Sawtooth Mountains were spectacular.

My ride coming to pick me up:

First good hillside:

A bit closer:

And you thought photography was an expensive hobby! Nice work!

I love the aerial views. Very cool. These are something we don't get too normally see.

Nice work, that looks like a lot of fun.

nice, wish i was there

Wow, looks like a fun trip! Lots of color up there. There's more than I saw along the shore.

Wow those are awesome. I was up on the North shore a couple years ago for my birthday and it was awesome. Hopefully I will make it back up there for my birthday one of these years. Such a beautiful place this time of year, and capturing it from the air is so much cooler. Great stuff and thanks for sharing.

Beautiful images, Ken! I was thinking of you while we were prowling the woods yesterday and wondering if you'd made it up. Great additions to the portfolio!

I really like that first shot of the Sawtooth Mountains. That is one photo trip I would never be able to do. Too hard to get good pictures when your eyes are closed and your hands are shaking!

Actually it was a very smooth flight except for the one bank and dive he did over my house to get a picture! Stan's a very good pilot. I get sick on the Tilt-a-Whirl but this didn't bother me at all!

Love that second image Ken!....Leaves are really turning along the Northshore......

[Catmendo]

Beauties, absolute beauties!

Great work Ken, looks like it was a nice day to be aloft. As Yak mentioned you think photography is expensive!
