Color Cavalcade: Autumn in Central Oregon

The collection of photographs in this book offer a variety of colorful scenes in various locations throughout Central Oregon. The author has assembled a line-up of appealing autumn color photos that are sure to be pleasing to the eyes of those who examine these pages. Despite the prominence of the desert in this region, there are splotches of fall color to be found all over this scenic area. This is especially true in those forested sectors close to the mountains where maples, aspens, and birch grow in prolific numbers by creeks and rivers. But due to human efforts, there are many deciduous trees in the communities of this part of the "Beaver State." Though not every town in Central Oregon is represented herein, many of the pictures showcased are of scenes found in urban parks and along city streets. The purpose of this color-saturated volume is to show off the fall colors that abound in this sector of Oregon. Since the autumn colors are the primary feature of this book, it focuses on those areas with the most abundant color to be seen each fall. Granted, this area does not have the type of fall color scenes found in New England and other places that have massive deciduous forests. But that does not mean Central Oregon is void of autumn colors. On the contrary, this book displays the color-studded scenes that come along each year during the fall months, scenes relished by tourists and locals alike.
