Autumn Misty Morn, Heart Lake

Love the colors.

Rich, this is absolutely stunning!!! I don't have any words to describe what I see.

Guys, thanks for the compliments. The actual transparency as is usually the case is about 1/2 to 2/3 stop lighter than this scan. No filter was used, but there is a strong contrast of the orange of the leaves and blue of the lake and the sky (secondary and primary colors). There actually is a mate to this image taken the year before at about 8:30 AM. That image has a stronger reflection and the reds are deeper in color than this image; I had waited for the mist to clear in that image because I wanted a strong red reflection in the lake water. The photo here, however was taken at about 7:30 AM utilyzing the early sunlight striking the mountainside. Additionally, here in this image I wanted to include the mist in the mid ground. The color in Autumn Misty Morn, Heart Lake (above) is further along in the color change than its mate, but the colors are more orangy red than a deep red.

Very nice image. Give us more!

Hmmm..... looking again.... I don't get tired of this one. Another for my favorites.
