Autumn is fast approaching here in VT, as evidenced by this shoreline tree catching the late day light and reflecting into this stream in Groton State Forest. Thanks for looking.

Mitch,

Love this. A unique set of color creates a bit of a dark mood here, and I really like the flow of the water pulling me in to the frame. I like the arrangement of the rocks creating the patterns in the water and I especially like the texture of the water throughout.

The only suggestion I have would be a slight crop from the top to eliminate a couple of the highlights top left, but that's minor.

I think I could spend some time at this spot!

As I looked at this from across the room, I saw the water smiling contentedly, eyes closed, button nose. Don't get that up close.

I was going to mention that, but didn't want to influence other's by letting the "cat" out of the bag....

I saw it right away and I think it's a fun added element to this already unique look and capture.

Very captivating. Love the abstract quality as well as the luminosity.

This is so cool, Mitch. I love the smiling face.

Stay in touch about Acadia. I hope to see you guys there in a few more weeks for some autumn color. We are due after the last couple of drab years.
