The canyon at McGee Creek will be in full color by the weekend of October 6. The nights are cold and daytime temps are in the 80s. This combined with an elevation of 8,200 feet means good color right on schedule. This photo was made on September 27, 2012 with a Canon 5D MkIII camera using a Canon 24-105mm zoom set to 55mm. The exposure was 1/250 sec. at f/11 using ISO 1250 with Polarizing filter. For more information on lighting, exposure and filters, check our Tips and Techniques section. 038
