The Golden Grate

[molucca]

John,

Nice waterfall. I see highlights in many shots. You don't notice it as much in place because things are moving.

Only thing happening here is a lot of trees are dying and falling into houses. A large Fur tree fell across the road and the road was closed for about eight hours.

Hi Rich,

Fall is weird in this neck of the woods also. Some trees are green, some are gold, some are green and gold. It is hard to find a nice shot. I years past I could get shots of an entire hill side in fall colors. This year, I am lucky if I get an entire tree in full color.

Thanks for looking Germaine.

Thanks Lilu...

I had a few moments today so I stepped outside and took a few minutes to take a few test shots. this shot is with an accentuating filter and a circular polarizing filter. The first filter brought out the golds and the CPL brought out the beautiful clear blue sky.

Cropped, resized and tweaked with Xpro

Wanted to see if I could get a nice shot backlit through the tree... used a CPL and an enhancement filter.
