Rongnongno Loc: FL

Vermont? Just walk in the wood.

PixelStan77 Loc: Vermont/Chicago

If you don't mind riding for 2 hours..I would suggest Stowe Vermont, mountain road and smugglers notch road. You will be part of the 3 million people who come to Vermont because of our Maple and Birch tree colors.

All of the above are great suggestions, add a trip up RTE 100 to the list. But, like anything it depends upon your timing. Check out this Vermont site that shows the peak colors and when. You can also dial in your planned date to see where the viewing might be best. Remember though this forecast is based upon historical data as opposed to the actual conditions shown for that day.

boberic Loc: Quiet Corner, Connecticut. Ex long Islander

You will be near Killington. Most ski areas run their gondola during leaf season. Maybe a great location, at the summit. Any lake shore, facing east. Great early morning sunrise shots. Woodstock, also a great photo location, a classic New England town. Please take me with you.

Groye Loc: Lancaster, Pa

We will be in Woodstock that week, don't miss The Jenny Farm in Reading, not far from you. The most Photographed farm in the world.

sb Loc: Florida's East Coast

That should be a great time to be there! I am jealous. You will see the most spectacular colors! Get off on the real side roads - you will find the most beautiful farms and barns, all surrounded by colorful maples!

MikeMck Loc: Southern Maryland on the Bay

I'm going up in two weeks to visit my daughter. Over the years I have found the entire state is one big photo op!

Rick from NY Loc: Sarasota FL

Just be aware that it has been particularly hot and dry this summer in the northeast and in the past, dry summers have resulted in less vibrant colors, earlier color and shorter season. There is always color - it is the onset, the demise and the vividness of the color that vary due to the weather and a whole host of other uncontrollable variables. I hope you find yourself at the right time at the right place. One never really knows.

BudsOwl Loc: Upstate NY and New England

Please stay home. That way it will make it one less car on the road when I go to Vermont to take pictures. Seriously, consider also going south on route 100 to Wilmington and then west on route 9 to Bennington, then north on old route 7 to Manchester.

Groye Loc: Lancaster, Pa

There is an interesting covered bridge in Cavendish that has a story with it. My wife loves Manchester why a lot of shopping, but a great town center

Rongnongno Loc: FL

Does not that make really the most boring place to photograph like the Pisa Tower, the Eiffel tower and the like?

Most photographed = beaten path.

Sorry to bring this up but to me originality/uniqueness is key. I am sure one will reply 'it depends how you see it', well, among the previous shooters, don't you think some have 'seen' your 'vision'?

Groye Loc: Lancaster, Pa

Really, Don't respond to my replies unless it is a constructive response, Really. That was. Almost A joke

Rick from NY Loc: Sarasota FL

Rogno never misses an opportunity to be obnoxious. Not to mention that his advice about cliche shots might apply to the Leaning Tower or the Eiffel Tower, but has nothing to do with a unique fall foliage scene that is a once in a lifetime and will never look exactly the same twice.

He loves to hear himself preach.
