Walk By Shooting

A fall scene that I saw while on my morning walk. I couldn't resist a photo. The water tower in the background has small town written all over it. Well not really, but you know what I mean. I suppose I could manip it a tad and write "small town," on it and then it would comply with my statement. Seems like a lot of trouble and people might not know where they are at. It could cause mass panic for the 750 inhabitants of the quaint little village. Just better leave well enough alone. A walk by shooting is enough excitement for one day.

Photo taken 10/22/2014

Gorgeous shot Tick - have the leaves in Missouri changed already and started to fall or is this from last year? Lovely house and cute pumpkins.

Someone is going to have a lot of leaves to bag! Sure is a beautiful tree, though. Nothing like a Midwest town for a great looking shot. Well done, Tick.

Tick, a sleepy little USA town (Pascagoula?), lol? with a wonderful Fall toned covered tree.
Sorry Owd Fella: little mistake of mine as Pascagoula isn't in Missouri. Good one anyhow (composition and capture).

Before opening your image, I thought we were going to see a crime scene. This is much better, Tick. I miss small town America.

This is a beautiful shot with that house and that golden tree Tick. Before you used to shoot horses when walking past. This is an equally good target. Good composition and clarity.

Love your narrative, Tick ... and yes this could be 'small town' just about anywhere. The maple trees have been gorgeous this year. Beautifully captured.

A study of two homes in autumn. One, a huge white building housing human families and the second one, a huge orange thing housing families of birds, squirrels, and quite possibly, bugs.

I see the Midwest small town in this shot Tick - water tower and style of the house all speaks to that. Wonderful shot of Americana.

its a great shot, i love the water tower in the back ground, i have a few shots of these myself. now you could have climbed to the top with can of spray paint? save some time in software, got another contender for the contest..not to mention cut your walk short..stair climbing is better exercise then walking

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

This exactly how we on this side of the Atlantic think small-town America looks. Beautiful colours, contrasts and content. The water tower makes me think of Orson Welles and his infamous War of the Worlds broadcast.

Brilliant capture you've got in this walk by shooting, spectacular fall colours and wonderful lighting. The tree has a wonderful shape and still has lots of leaves to come down
