Beautiful colors, beautiful composition!
I can hear the birds singing as I'm drowning worms! Nice work! Tom

This shot is all about light. Right on the edge of a slight over exposure. Love autumn colors and the reflections you can get from this time of year. JIM

Thanks Tom. It's an idyllic spot, fish or no fish. The colors right now enhance the whole scene.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for looking--it was a sunny day so trying to get the exposure right was a little touchy with the dark vs bright areas. The colors this year seem to be better than usual for some reason.

Hi

Nice!!

We don't get these beautiful autumn colours much here in Australia as most of our trees are evergreens and in my travels I never seem to be in the right place at the right time.

Japan is another country producing stunning autumn scenery, Japanese Maple and Ginkgo trees are stunning when the turn colour. I travel there a lot and again, always the wrong season. Your shot looks like it could be a Japanese garden. Gardens in Japan always have a lake and a tee house and this construction to the left of your picture could be part of such a tee house. But then again not because Japanese gardens always look very organised and "sculptured".

Perhaps one day I will be there at the right time.

Greetings

Thanks Schraubstock. A Japanese garden in the fall would be high on my to-do as well.
