Over the weekend we went to my Dad’s house to celebrate my wife’s birthday. I took a brief detour outside to capture some photos of the flowers that were still blooming in the yard. In the back is this pond and floating on the surface were these three leaves.
Because of the vegetation floating on the water the leaves seemed to float above the surface. I thought the color and positioning made a pleasing photo. Can’t wait until the colors start to pop up in the Cascades. Every year I swear that I will get out and capture some great Fall images. This year is no exception. But unlike years past when things get busy and before I know it the colors have changed, I actually plan on taking time off to go out and photograph the changes. I hope you will hold me to that promise.
Hey Matt,
Let me know when you might head out to the mountains if you want some company and if I my schedule permits I’ll go along. Several weeks ago, Indian Ridge vine maples were just beginning to change (along with the B.L. maples) so in the next week or two things should be prime. I’ll be working up that way and will let you know. BTW, great pond photograph!
I’m thinking of heading out to the Aufderheide the week of the 18th. I’m hoping that it won’t be too late by then but that is the earliest I can take a day off from work. I’m hoping the weather will be good and will probably play it by ear and see what day it looks best. I’ll let you know.
