,,,,,to last year. The early morning light added even more warmth to the rusty reds of this cypress in peak fall color.

Ditto the other comments. It looks something on the atchafalaya.

Oh, this just sublime, David, really special. I love seeing Nature from your part of the world; it's so different and just as awesome as some of the more "popular" areas people go to photograph. Your comp, the color and the light really show off these majestic trees in their environment.

Sweet light! The hazy bg adds a nice atmosphere. On the technical side I notice a tiny bit lens distortion - maybe only a perceived one. The horizon seems to bend upwards from left to right - very minor.

Amazing looking landscape again David. The overall colour tone looks beautiful. Facinating and majestic looking trees.

Thank you for helping me realize that fall is not just for the northeast, or the mountains of the west! Glorious scene. You can go ahead and remind me every 48 hours, if you would like to.

One gorgeous shot David. You sure know your way around these Cypress tress. I love the rust color, the placement of the large tree in the foreground, with the smaller trees spread out in the background. I just don't think you can get any better. Love your work.

Glorious! Like nothing I've seen before. The colors is so nice, as is the light, and the comp. I definately want to see this before I go!

Stunning as usual David, especially the background. Your sky looks a bit on the noisy side....

David,
It'd be a nice to have a little more clouds (but that's common it seems like) but I love the simple comp. The tree dominates the fg very nicely but leaves enough room for the five bg trees giving very nice depth. Good capture.
