The First Fall Colors: Our Central Park Photo Walk with Mat Rick & Moment

Last Friday, we joined forces with Moment and photographer Mat Rick for an early morning photo walk in Central Park. Despite the looming storm, members of our community met us at the John Lennon peace memorial at Strawberry Fields to capture the first colors of fall. After indulging on donuts and mingling with friends, new (Tracy) and old (Tutes), we began the expedition with our Moment lenses and ONA bags in tow.

The rain held off for the first hour as we walked the paths of Central Park in search of the perfect combination of warm tones and vibrant hues. After exploring alongside The Ramble and Lake we ended our journey at Bethesda Terrace where we gathered for a group photo and parted ways. Those who joined had the opportunity to enter their photos in our photo walk giveaway and Moment's Color Your World contest.

Take a look below for some of our favorite "fall colors" and the winner of our photo walk giveaway.
