Picture Fall

You've seen this bridge before.  But on Sunday the 3rd, I took my camera to the Soccer field and caught the image I had seen the week I didn't take my camera... The color of the bridge reflected in the water.  I think it takes being there at noon to really capture this in its full glory.

Day 3 of Picture Fall was a challenge to find beauty in starkness, in something other than the abundant richness of the fall colors. Pictures above and below were my take on the challenge. How did I do?

Picture Fall Day 4 was "morning light" - and we had 3 days in a row of grey, overcast, no light to speak of. So I caught raindrops on an umbrella instead.

Day 6 - "Subtleties"  - a study in monochrome. In my case, the color of our deck is very similar to the color of the fallen leaves that gather on it. If you know your leaf shapes, you can clearly see the pin oak and mountain ash leaves here and if you look in the upper left corner, you can see a sugar maple leaf. Had I thought about it before snapping, I might have "arranged" the leaves a bit so the species were more visible. But I went out and snapped exactly what nature had left me!



And finally, even though this isn't technically "monochromatic" I love the dark red mums played against the brick facing of the house.
