Peter,
My wife and I just love Vermont. The color change looks like early September. In full color it's tough to beat that part of the country. My favorite trip was the summit at Killington in late September by gondola ride. On a clear day they claim you can see 5 states and Canada. I have photo's somewhere but this was before the digital age so everything is in prints and I need to find them first.
I saw this guy at the Tower Hill Botanical Gardens near Boston.... I took this with my Point and shoot Canon G7 hand held....no tripod. Sometimes you get lucky.

Fun With Old Photos
I believe this is the only time I ever saw one of these in the water. (Taken Mid 1980's) It sure turns your head.
I recently scanned some slides from when we lived in Atlanta (82 - 93). This was taken on Lake Lanier which is a huge reservoir lake just north of Atlanta.

I almost forgot I had these photo's. This was taken this year on Mothers Day. I'm still unclear as to how this swan entered my property, but he startled my when I exited the house that day. I opened the gate and politely asked him to leave. After hissing several times he walked down the driveway and exited down the street. Best I could figure he was from the UK because he was walking down the wrong side of the road. I just loved the old man in the Benz who just drove by like nothing ever happened.
