One of my favorite places to go around here. I wanted to go test out a new 18-55mm lens for the Canon EOS 40D. It wasn't real expensive, but I think the results are acceptable to me.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Great focus and beautiful color Jim! A gorgeous scene as well. The trees are really focused too, if you know what I mean...lol

Jim, I see nothing wrong with the results from that lens. Very nice, and I remember this place from postings past.

A well-composed fall scene, and the frame adds to it. Nicely done!

I'd say keep the lens. Nicely composed, I love those clouds against that blue sky. Well done.

God moved upon the face of the waters". Jesus baptized into water. All life is attracted to water such as rivers and lakes. Some see water as life itself and talk about "Living Water".
Water is paramount on Earth, if not in the universe. We live on a water planet, and our bodies are mostly water.
Maybe this is why this shot has a calming and peaceful feel to it:))
