Pillsbury Crossing

Gallery: LandscapePosted November 6, 2010121 views8 comments

I took this photograph this morning at Pillsbury Crossing. These trees are downstream from the falls and normally have some color on them, but I've never seen them with this much color. I would have never gone out there this morning if I hadn't of had the chance to see some shots that another photographer took at Pillsbury last weekend at sunrise (thanks to Facebook for that!). I think this is the first time I've ever been at Pillsbury and not photographed the waterfalls.

Canon 40D, Canon 10-22mm@10mm, f20, 1.0 sec, ISO 100. Used a circular polarizer and selected a 'cloudy' white balance setting to help bring out some colors.

Great color Scott. You took advantage of our cloudless skies that we have had now for what seems like forever. Nice reflection, I'm surprised there is that much water.

Hey Scott, it's nice to see another perspective from the area. Nice fall scene with rich colors. Is that small blur in the sky at left just above the trees a cloud remenent or a dust spot?

Nice shot Scott. I like how the sunlight brightens up the tree tops, and I like the lines of the tree tops, the bank, and the reflections.

Nice Photo Scott!!
Great leading line of the shore.
Good contrast with the blue and orange.
Leaning trees and reflections only add.

As usual, great photography.
I like the strong leading line along the water-shore interface.
The strong color contrast between oragne and blues if very effective.
I wonder what this would look like with the branches in the upper right cloned out???
Nice stuff.
