Earlier this week I posted “Dock on Elm Beach” which received some nice attention. This is another image from the same session taken during a morning sunrise which I hope you enjoy.

Elm Beach at Sunrise
Our house in the Pocono Mountains backs up to the Maple Swamp. I thought this sounded kind of bad when we moved there but this is a northern mountains swamp at an elevation of 1,600 feet not a lowland swamp. It doesn’t have quicksand and leeches that you may find in the south. Our swamps have hardwood trees, foxes,coyotes and bears and in the spring and autumn show the rainbow of colors that is our seasonal change.

I think September and October are two of the best months for living in the Pocono Mountains. The weather is near perfect, the summer crazies have gone home and it’s too early for most hunters and skiers. The pace settles down, the air is crisp and mild and the colors are beautiful. This is a small lake about two miles from my house in Hemlock Farms. You can purchase a print of this and see other images and apparel at my commercial site.
Dock at Elm Beach
Wetlands is the new politically correct word for a swamp. Just sounds better doesn’t it? Wetlands in Pennsylvania are homes to bears, snakes and migratory birds and a valuable water source. In the autumn they take on a wonderful color like this spot in the Pocono Mountains. You can purchase a print of this image and see others on my commercial site by clicking here.

It is fall in the Pocono Mountains and the leaves are falling down creating splashes of color everywhere. While the autumn is beautiful, the leaves can create a huge mess. Sometimes there are a lot of wet leaves on a mountain road and they are easy to skid on or slip on while walking. Hopefully it doesn’t snow too early because a heavy snowfall on top of leaves equals one colossal cluster ____. However it is all worth it to see the crown of natures beauty.

Around the corner from my house is this little pond that is part of the Maple Swamp. Swamp in the Pocono Mountains means something different than it does in the South or near the equator. Sure we have the occasional Black Bear and you have to watch out for a rare copperhead but there are no large snakes and alligators.This is my neighborhood in the fall, you can buy a print at my commercial gallery by clicking here.
