Fall Colors 2018 Assignment Winner Zeralda La Grange

“In south Louisiana, we get very little in the way of vibrant fall colors,” explains La Grange. “So every fall I make it a point to go somewhere to see color. Up until now, my fall travels have taken me east. This was my first venture west for the fall. I joined a photo tour with Tom Bol and George Theodore as they know the area. When we arrived for the sunrise at the Dallas Divide, I did what I normally do. I parted from the crowd and went in search of my own perspective. This took me out of the parking lot where most were congregated. I walked up the road a bit and found a place I liked. I was just barely off the shoulder. Just enough to not be run over by traffic, but not so close to the edge that I slid down the embankment.
