Morning Connery Pond

This photo is an example of being open to other possibilities. I showed up before sunrise to photograph Whiteface Mtn. However Whiteface never came out of the clouds but this scene to my right was a gift for "showing Up"

Taken with a Nikon D300, 70-200mm 2.8 Lens, ISO 200, f22, 1/10th sec and a 1stop grad.

Wow, look at that color! I love the composition and where you placed the green building in the scene. Well done, and what a wonderful "out-door prize" you got for "showing up". :smile:

Great color throughout the picture. I like the way all the color are split up. The brown grass in the FG, followed by the dark water and the vibrant colorful forest and then ending with the frosted mountain in the BG. Nice shot.
