Thought I would share another from Saturday mornings outing. It really was a nice place that Wayne and I spent a few hours at around Perry. I shot quite a few across the water to the other shore which was a ways away but it sure had some nice things happening next to the water. I tightened up on this to emphasize the reflection more than the land and intentionally left it darker, seemed to look better to my eye that way.

Yeah ... Google Earth sure paid off on this trip! We found a nice area on Perry that has very nice potential, especially in fall.
I like what you've done here Brad. I like images composed this way ... with the horizon (shoreline) in the upper third and the reflection dominating the lower two thirds. Nice play of shadow & light and the white splashes of color break it up nicely.

Great composition with all the trees and reflections Brad, and the color is really nice too. The stick-ups in the middle are a bit of a distraction, but still a beautiful image.

Nice color, but my eyes don't have a lot of places to roam.

Brad, I really like these reflection shots and the gold tones in your shot are really nice.

Hey Brad, I like the composition and colors. The reflections on the water make it look like colored foil. Unique shot and worth every bit of it.
