“And all at once, summer collapsed into fall.”
~ Oscar Wilde
~ 1854 ~ 1900
Though summer, my most favorite of seasons, is still in full bloom on the sun dappled trail, the scattered leaves whisper of the autumn to come on a beautiful mid-August afternoon along the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L Trail) in Laurys Station, North Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania.
I captured this shot after setting out from The Cove Road Trailhead, which is near a Lehigh River Water Trail access point at Treichler’s Bridge. The trail is part of the Asher F. Boyer Eagle Trail section of the D&L.
Running from Wilkes-Barre to Bristol, the D&L Trail passes through the Lehigh and Delaware Rivers and their canals in Pennsylvania.
