Book excerpt: Acadia National Park is blessed with some of the most beautiful scenery in the country- mountains, lakes, ponds, woods, meadows, trails and miles and miles of ocean coastline. It's peaceful and serene, but it can also be deafening and violent, surrounded by the roar of the nearby Atlantic Ocean. But it's always sublime. No other national park can compete with the variety of the landscape in Acadia.Autumn is the most beautiful time to visit. Peaking in October, the park truly glows in the Fall colors. Whole swathes of trees turn from green to yellow, red, orange or pink, as if Nature is giving us one last burst of fireworks in a grand finale, before slipping into the cold, colorless depths of winter.But it isn't just the foliage that makes Acadia so unique in Autumn. There's a special quality to the light that gives everything a renewed energy and vibrancy, from the mountains down to the coast. Even the rocks seem alive in the dawn glow of a new day.Landscape photographer Michael Hudson has been coming to Acadia every October to photograph the light and colors for several years. This, his first hardcover photography book, is a celebration of all the beauty that is Autumn in Acadia.
