New Orleans

The colorful dying leaves of New Orleans are just as beautiful as anywhere else in the world.

Union Parish – Finch Lake

This gorgeous image of Finch Lake as the early morning fog rolls over the lakeside truly epitomizes fall in bayou country.

Union Parish – Harrell Lake

The beautiful tree-lined Harrell Lake is the perfect place to take in the sight of fall leaves.

Union Parish

Floating camp on the Ouachita River near Finch Lake. There are no roads to this camp, the only access to it is by water. The camp is floating on pontoons and Styrofoam with the pole on the sides guide the camp up and down as the water rises and falls.

The Bayou

This alligator takes in the golden autumnal sun as it bathes in the bayou.

Caddo Lake State Park

On the Louisiana/Texas border, Caddo Lake State Park is a beautiful swamp location to take in the sights mother nature provides. In all honesty, I believe this forest to be quite magical.

Upper Ouachita National Wildlife Refuge

Cypress trees surround Finch Lake with their fall colored leaves making for a breathtaking sight indeed.

Anytime in Louisiana is an excellent time for visitors. The fall in Louisiana, however, might just be the best time because the weather is very agreeable and the natural scenery is truly breathtaking.
