Washington, Connecticut, USA (Steep Rock Reservation). Preparing for a hike in this land preserve, we got out of the car to see this view of the changing colors of the trees near a horse paddock. This is the shot out of the camera. Enjoy! Critique welcomed.

Thad....

Next autumn I'll head back to Wisconsin to see the changing of the leaves. This shot makes me "home sick" if you can be home sick for the Midwest. It was 78° here when I was swimming laps at the gym, but I do miss Mother Nature's great shows. Love those colors.

I have but one question; is she leading that horse to water and is it drinking? :)
Great lighting and gorgeous colours in your photo, Thad. A nicely composed scene. Great work!

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. Henri Cartier-Bresson

I love those shots that come out just right like this. That tree on the left is showing off a little by changing colors completely. A great capture Thad.

Lovely shot Thad. The red tree is still the star, even if he isn't centre stage.
