Autumn Afternoon on the Cedar River Flow

Beautiful autumn afternoon on the Cedar River Flow. The mercury was around 85 degrees with a nice breeze, so I can't complain about the weather. Leaves are already somewhat beyond peak, although with the haze, looking south, they are hard to make our the colors.
