Gorgeous autumn colors & oh my, I just love that water. The pastels & blue-greens of the stone bridge make for a nice contrast as well. Excellent capture & so nicely composed.
"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon

Chris - this is now one of my favorite fall photos - the color of the water is something not seen with this tree color... Makes one want to look for a looong time! ~Mary~
Smashing scene!! The color offerings seem a wee over-saturated, but that might be my tired owd eye though. Beauty of a bridge and land beyond and the water is crisp 'n' refreshing!!
Putting your pictures in my favorites is the highest honor I can give you. If I do not get to your pictures as soon as you post them, I apologize. I try. Also if I do not respond for awhile it doesn't mean I'm ignoring you, it just means I'm really tied up with life. Bene lava!!
Saw this in featured images. Don't know how I missed it. Naturally it's in the faves. What a couple of eyeballs full of color. Just love it. I think everyone else has said it all. Just excellent Chris.
Several of my photos are available for purchase in larger format at Shutterpoint, and some are also available in high quality framed prints at http://djholmes.imagekind.com/
