A View of Autumn From A Kayak
I purchased a small kayak for photo opportunities such as this. For once my timing was perfect: no wind, great lighting, bright colors and no crowd. I hope you enjoy these. This is the real color. These are not Photoshop creations.

Really great shots! I love how one of the deer is sticking its tongue out at you - and I honestly think I have never seen a windless/flat lake - it really helps to draw your eyes to the color both in the trees and in the reflection.

Thanks guys.
Yes, the 20D is a sweet camera. It gives me tremendous opportunity to grow as a photographer.

Stunning. It makes me wish I was up North right now. The second to last is my favourite. Something about the bright blue sky with the shocking orange leaves. Beautiful!

These are breathtaking. I can only imagine how glorious it was to actually be there!

Central Illinois
I took all of these photos at a small lake in central Illinois. The lake is so small it is not even on most maps. I think our color is early.

Stick with the plain black and white frames.
I can't help but think of the motivation posters, and in particular the demotivation posters at http://www.despair.com/ Sorry, but you'll see why: ![]() ![]() |
