“Our region has some of the most beautiful fall color in the country,” said Park Ranger Andy Brown. “From the Sierras to the Rubies, and along every winding creek in between, there are hidden gems waiting to be discovered. Landscape photography is extremely popular this time of year, with professional and casual shutter-bugs alike out shooting amazing photos, and the Sierra-Nevada Autumn exhibit is meant to give them a chance to share those scenes with the public.”
