Valles Caldera National Preserve in early October. I would live there if I could.

@Tamami the greens are my favourite part. I mean, I love everything but. I have a soft spot for green.

It reminds me of hiking in the moutains (the Mercantour, southern Alps). Different but familiar in a way.

@PeryleneBleu Yes, this place had such soft warm greens (because there are almost always some water running through this plain). I was there near the sunset hour, and that light made the grasses look more copper-orangey. It was beautiful.
