Begin November 23rd |
  On Saturday, November 23rd, Kazuya and I went out to Mitake, took the bus to the bottom of the cable car and then took that to it's terminus near the top of Mt. Mitake (929 m = 3,048 ft.) in search of fall colors to photograph. As you can see, we were not disappointed. The first photo in this row shows a hilltop with some nice yellows on it. The 2nd and 3rd shots show some nice reds/oranges in a maple tree. |

  The first shot here shows a Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Arisaema sp.) plant with its brilliant red seeds. The 2nd image is a 3 photo panorama which shows some nice colors on a mountain across the valley from our location. The 3 shots were taken as portrait mode photos and merged into this image. The 3rd shot shows some nice colors and some nice electric wires on the right side of the photo. |

  The first shot in this row is the final shot on Mt. Mitake. Then we went back down the cablecar and took the bus back to Mitake Station. Then we went back down to the Tama River, where we were beginning in Row #7 on the previous page. The 2nd shot shows the Mitake bridge over the Tama River, with some nice colors in the background. The 3rd shot is merely zoomed in and it shows some nice red reflections in the river. |

  Here is one more shot of the Famous Ginkgo Tree and then a shot of the Red Maple trees, under which we take the photos of the Ginkgo Tree to get the red maple leaves in the photos. The 3rd shot shows some nice colors looking down the river. |
