Lef Lane, a small street that leads down to Deep Creek Lake, includes some of the most brilliant color in Garrett County (MD).

Lef Lane  is a tight avenue surrounded by homes and some utility lines making it challenging to feature the leaves without including the  surrounding clutter.

This year I took a different approach with a longer lens and used the street sign as a central focus point with the colorful blanket of leaves in the background slightly out of focus. The dark shades in the tree trunk add some nice contrast, giving it a Halloween  color scheme or if you are a baseball fan, the team colors of the  San Francisco Giants, who became World Champions again last night.

By the way, I always thought the name of this street should be Leaf Lane, because of the wonderful fall foliage that envelops it.

Thanks for dropping by today, Rob
