Photographer’s Note
Autumn Movement by Carl Sandburg
I CRIED over beautiful things knowing no beautiful thing lasts.
The field of cornflower yellow is a scarf at the neck of the copper sunburned woman, the mother of the year, the taker of seeds.
The northwest wind comes and the yellow is torn full of holes, new beautiful things come in the first spit of snow on the northwest wind, and the old things go, not one lasts.

Hello Tom,
Wow, autumn at its most beautiful !
Incredible how many colours you can find in nature in this season.
Well composed. I specially like the part where the red reflected trees meet the dark blue water and also the dark reflections of the trees on the foreground.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Tom,
Seems like you have great colours this year!
This is a fine composition, where the evergreens to the right add contrast and creates depth in the frame...
The lake is the perfect mirror this fine day, great October mood!

Hello Tom
An astonishing, symmetrical reflection, with amazing warm cold color contrasts, between the Fall foliage & blue sky. Reasonable sharpness & well framed & composed. Tfs!

Very nicely done, Tom, with an apt bit of poetry in verse to complement the apt bit of poetry you and your camera caught in this lovely, fleeting autumn world. I think the two things that work best in this photo are the symmetry and the rich color of the image. Good clarity and off-center composition, too.
Regards,
Jim

Hi Tom
A nice bit of poetry to describe the moment. You have captured a beautiful moment in time here with the reflection and stillness of the water. The colours are to die for and I see thay are from last year. A better year for colour than this year as I understand.

An explosion of colours! And furthermore doubled by the very clear reflections. What a spectacle nature has reserved for you in this season! The water is mesmerizing being so still, and those pine trees at the right look like a zen painting.
A very good compositon and an appealing photo.
all the best,
Donato

Hi Tom,
That is a stunning colourful reflection! The light is very good as well as the point of view. Very calm place. A great place for fishing I guess.
Best regards
Denis!
