Assignment #39: Fall Color

In the Sierra Nevada, the fall color is just about to peak right now, and I’ve been getting reports from several readers that it’s a magnificent display this year. Over the next couple of weeks, much of the U.S. should be erupting in red, orange and yellow. For this week’s Assignment, show us your best fall color shots. I’ll be keeping a close eye on this Assignment as I look for images to run in the 2011 fall color issues of the magazine. Enter by midnight, October 19. —Christopher Robinson, Editor
