Firefall...
Well I had a great time out shooting with my mom. She's an artist and and has a wonderful eye, so fall is a great time to go out and hang with her, we look for the same stuff. She took me out to some real out of the way places, lots-o-fun.

Kinda funny, I stopped to get a coffee yesterday around 4pm before my 4.5 hr drive home and was walking down though the park with my mom. They have a little art show 4 days a week there. Anyway, I was admiring one of the photographers work, and realized I knew a couple of the pictures. It was David Forster. We talked made some hopeful plans for the winter and off I went. Really a nice guy who has some very nice work. http://www.nwrphotography.com/

Very cool shot. Reminds me of something Jim Jirka might post. (thats a compliment as I admire his work)

Oh yeah, I forgot, change of plans on the roof. I've got a new design I'd like you to look at. I think it might be pretty easy.

Jeremy,
Not super vibrant, but a splendid display of "the turn".

Thanks everyone...

I wasn't going for the vibrant on this. Although I have to admit I did see a vibrant shot here. That red created a nice bright contrast. I saw this and kinda saw a painting, one with amazing detail. That is what made this really so amazing is that there was no wind and not really a leaf moving for these two seconds. At full size the detail, I think, is something else.

A hearty second to the mention of Jim Jirka, I thought of him too. I'm ambivalent about the last tree on the right----have you looked at a crop there?
