Birches & Pond

I like this.  It's not spectacular, as some of the over medicated images here try to be, but it's totally natural, like I'm standing there with you.  Well done... Mike

Yes the greys and the leaves, that's late fall after the colors, there is still color before the snows.

Hi Len, Birches are among my favorite trees and they are nicely depicted here. A very peaceful and serene setting Len, looks like a great place for a walk and picture taking afternoon.

All the Best, Holger

Thanks.  Next time bring coffee!  Then we can sit in those chairs I posted last & tell each other our best photography stories.  :-)  It was a calm & serene location, (thanks, Holger)  a day or two before the first permanent snowfall of the season.  Worth the effort of a frame or two I thought.  Best, Len.

Yes, some colour survives even after the leaves are gone.  Well, not gone really, merely relocated.  :-)  Thanks for your thoughts.  Best, Len.

Yah, who doesn't like birches?  Had the place all to myself.  Unfortunately I couldn't stay long to fully explore.  But I'll return sometime soon when I can.  Winter should provide a different look.  Stay tuned!  Best, Len.

This winter toque half on half off, eh?

 This year the decision to put the snow tires on in October is questionable.  The toque is always ready in the glove box.  Stay warm, stay well.  Best, Len.

really very beautiful scene

Every season holds it's own beauty.  Our job is to capture it when we recognize it.  Thanks for your visit & comment.  Best, Len.

Len,  I agree with Mike and the others.  I also like the sharpness of the birches in the foreground.  The square format works well here.  Larry

I really appreciate your feedback on this offering.  It reflects the same feeling I had when I posted it.  The foreground birches were what I focused on.  It's actually a 4x5 aspect ratio, cropped in Photoshop to eliminate an unwanted foreground object on the lower right and for what I perceive as better balance.  Best, Len.
