ABOUT FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER JIM SALGE
Jim has a deep-rooted appreciation for wild spaces, which has manifested itself into numerous outdoor pursuits. He has long enjoyed hiking, fly fishing, and cross country skiing, but now plans these activities to complement his photography.Jim began taking pictures while working as a meteorologist at the Mount Washington Observatory in New Hampshire over a decade ago, and he continues to use his background in the sciences as a physics teacher at Bedford High School. He also serves as NewEngland.com’s foliage forecaster and reporter, and has become one of New England’s most keen observers of the progression of the seasons. In his weekly updates, he shares his knowledge of weather, geography, and climate to pinpoint the best fall color in the region.
The White Mountains remain the primary focus of Jim’s photography, where he will often begin before long dawn and stay out after sunset, immersing himself in the beauty of the natural environment. While he shoots with a digital SLR camera, he makes extensive use of filters to control the light during difficult exposures and finds great joy in traditional techniques. He strives to process his images in an authentic way to allow the viewer to best connect with his photographs.

Gorgeous photos Jim!
I was born in Maine, and currently live in Alaska. My heart is calling me home and these photos are so beautiful and comforting. Thank you so much.
The photos are mouth watering and nearly too good to be true. The scenes, themselves, are stand outs. However, the colors and lighting as Jim has captured these stunning scenes and places is exceptional. In a word, “Wow”.
Your pictures are absolutely beautiful. Thank you, they bring back many memories of New England (sadly I don’t live there anymore ) Born & raised there, so I’ll always be a New Englander !!
Breathtaking photos of the home I know…. missing home even more after viewing as I have moved to NC ten years ago, the yearning is still there, especially at this time of year. Thank you for the visit !!
Breathtaking!!! I used to live in Keene – now relocated to Wisconsin….I miss my New England foliage. Thank you for sharing your amazing pics!
The pictures are wonderful.
Raised in central Massachusetts and will always consider New England home. Your pictures take me home again. Thank you with all my heart.
Very beautiful pics. Tk for your sharing
I was raised in Western Mass in the Berkshire Mountains, and now live in the deep South. I miss New England, and thank you for bringing these beautiful memories back to me in your photography.
Grew up in Conn and now live in Texas. I am 85 years old and miss New England and its villages, mountains, coast lines and Autumn colors. Wish I could see it again and visit family we left there. When I was about 16 I climbed Tuckerman Trail with my pastor and his daughter. Camped in Dolly Copp camp
and it was my first time away from home. Been back several times but not mt climbing any more. I am a Yankee at heart.
Me too!Im in SC but am a Yankee at heart!I try to visit once a year but leave peeping is only its best splendor in NEngland!????❤️
I was born in Mass. And lived in Amherst,N.H. And Dublin,NH and miss the fall leaves. Now I live in Pa. But the leaves never look as cover full as N.E.
My childhood was spent in NJ/Phila but I managed to live in the Adirondacks a few years. Unfortunately, I lived mostly in many parts of Florida. I was lucky enough to live in NH three years and for me, in my heart, it will always be home and where I aspire to live once again. Thank you for your autum photos. October is a difficult month to live in Florida when you know first hand what you are missing in New Hampshire.
