Three Pictures: Fall Foliage

I drove up to Bozeman today to do some shopping, and stopped along the way to get a few pictures of the autumn leaves changing along the banks of the Jefferson River.

These were taken just south of a little crossroads called Silver Star, looking east toward the Tobacco Root Mountains. It was kind of overcast, which accounts somewhat for the bluish tinge in the mountains (the sun was just rising up from behind them).

By the way, the new logo at the head of the blog is also from this sequence of shots, looking upriver from the same spot where I took this last one looking downriver (the Jefferson is one of the three rivers that converge about forty miles from this spot to form the mighty Missouri).
