Come to Candy Mountain!

So there's a story to why I edited this photo to show these amazing colors. :)

I was on a hike on Black Mountain near Lake George, NY during peak Fall Foliage. The colors really did POP. I really couldn't believe that leaves could look this bright and vibrant. I thought maybe I accidentally ate some mushrooms or acid they were so vibrant. So about 30 minutes into the hike I ask my friend if he's ever seen anything this bright. He says yeah and thinks I'm crazy. I take my sunglasses off and they are just regular Fall leaves. Don't get me wrong, they were beautiful but nothing like I thought. My freaking sunglasses were "polarized" and were somehow changing the leaves to look almost like this photo. They were just some cheap pair from the mall. I've owned polarized glasses before and it was nothing like this. Anyways, this photo was the best I could do the render that experience when we started on the trail.

And it's my entry into the photo contest for #colorfulphotography !!
