Great fall colors and the water in the background make this a real keeper.
Perfect for a desktop. WELL DONE, thanks for sharing, Don

Verrrrrry nice. :)

This is one of those situations where the orange of the leaves and blue of the water work well together. It's often that way with nature. If we do a painting with contrasting colors they fight and vibrate and generally make us feel poorly just looking at them. But nature has a way of placing just the right hues of contrasting colors together to make it come out right, as in this photo. The only thing that seems out of place is what appears to be a building facade peeking out of the leaves in the upper left. I'd leave it there, though---it's kind of a Where's Waldo effect.

So jealous of all the colors you have at hand. Super representation of autumn. Jas

I feel as though I am sitting high up in that tree looking at a view that can only be described as pristine. I can even smell the freshness of the cobalt clear creek below and of the golden and crimson colored leaves. Leaves are one of my favorite things to see in nature, especially in Autumn. So glad you have taken this before all the leaves have fallen. Thank you PJ, for this marvelous capture, and for allowing me to sit here just a little while longer :) And giggles at "crik"! :) Lori

This is a "wow..thats beautiful!" picture! The lovely colors just grab your attention & hold it right there! What a great background that beautiful blue water makes for the autumnal colors of the turning leaves! Great comp, great clarity, great colors, and a great shot PJ!! Into my favs! C):-) *

Wow the colors, great shot.

Fab ! Wonderful shot! Fantastic job!

Exceptional colours and I love the glimpse of the river beyond the trees.You have composed it beautifully.

TWO...very beautiful images PJ.....they autumn 'fall' is being very good to you!...
The leaves are beginning to change at this moment for us!...so watch out for some beaut's!

These two that you have posted reminds me of what Autumn colours 'should' look like!

Beautiful picture. Lovley color and clarity. Lovley contrast between the water and the leaves. Excellent work.

I like the way the blue water is visible through the tree and contrasts beautifully with the orange leaves PJ! were you climbing the tree to get this image? just kidding! ;) it is lovely! Patti

Well a sunny day in the Autumn make the trees captures even better and with the background of a river, the shadows in the tree, make all this capture have a smile on it self.

Wow, that's really amazing! The blue crik peeking through and the brilliant colors! And you have a covered bridge! How awesome. Love this one.

great light and shadow play here
with the hint of something other than the ubuquitous sky ie the water and the small turbulence there

excellently refreshing shot

Lovely combination of textures, shadows and color, PJ. A very cheerful presentation and I can see the movement in your 'crik' through the trees. Super!

I really like this one PJ! The colors are so rich and vibrant with wonderful detail. The lines of the tree branches capture the eye and the sky and water add even more interest. The lighting perfectly enhances without making the colors harsh.

PJ, are you sure you're not from Tennessee. They tend to call it a crik also. What can I say about this image that hasn't already been covered. ~~~WOW~~~ Another beautiful burst of color.

This was a great idea for a photo and it came out so very well.What a wonderfull Fall photo,congrats on this beauty!!.

This is such a pretty shot PJ .... You are so lucky to have colors like this where you are. Hey wait no we are lucky too ..you brought this to us .... How great is that ..wonderful indeed.. The water below and lighting really sets this ne off to a perfect scene

This is beautiful Pat...one of better Autumn scnes posted. Such a beautiful day makes the colors so vivrant and the water in stream very dark blue and clear...nice work...gerry..

wonderful colors and capture.

Hi PJ. my oh my how absolutely stunning in every way! If this is a classic example of what the beautiful North East is serving you this fall, then, how fortunate you are!!! The colors of autumn are truly expressed in this image of beauty, with the blue of the water below and the ravishing loveliness of the sky above, well, it doesn't get much better than this and I simply love it! A fantastic shot PJ of your North Eastern Autumn glow!! Nice work and I expect and hope to see much more of your expertise during this firery season of fall! Sincerely, Marilyn

Beautiful, PJ!!!!

Lovely fall shot PJ. I hope you took more "down by the crik".

Hello
I'm new to the caedes community and have been browsing the various artists works and am very impressed with your captures. Brings back so many memories of my home in KY and the beautiful fall colors. Thank you for this beautiful image.

Wonderful autumnal colours / well shot

I'm almost afraid to comment on this because I've seen many of your critiques and they are about as thorough as anyone could want. So would it be alright if I just said I find this image most attractive. Looking through the tree as you've composed this is a tad unusual and MOST effective here. The clarity is excellent and ... Nope ... that's it ... I'm intimidated by your expertise. It's a great image in MY eyes and that C-Index stinks in MY opinion.

Really nice Autumn photograph, just bursting with rich colors of the fall season!
