First Report: Fall Is In The Air at Oak Glen

San Bernardino Mountains color spotter Alena Nicholas visited Oak Glen in the San Gorgonio Range, yesterday.  Her report shows that fall is definitely in the air.

Alena’s drive was above the “snow line” area of Oak Glenn Preserve (First Report) where color is nice in areas up high, but still pretty green down lower. She reported that hikers are out enjoying the cooler temperatures, diners and shoppers are enjoying the mountains’ restaurants and stores, and there are workers in the orchards and farms. Alena added that there are not nearly as many visitors now, “as during the ‘Harvest’ time, but still a good number all the same.”

Alena took these images with a cell phone.  She apologizes that the quality “isn’t all that good, but at least can give you an idea.” Though we note that today’s Apple and Samsung mobile phones take lovely photos, as these illustrate.

What Alena is mentioning is that while the exposures and color are good, the definition is less than found in a camera with a larger sensor and lens. Still, we welcome seeing photos taken with cell phones, as some very good photography is being taken with them.
