Well, it is that time of year. We have colors AND a reflection. Very nice image. Is that a bench for sitting and appreciating? A lovely spot for reflecting on the reflection. Sorry about that! Really good work.

Comment from Joelgraphuchin
What a color! Its richness in color amazes me. I like it so much: green, yellow, orange, brown, red. The reflection is cool as well.

Well done and thanks for sharing.

I can never join in this contest
As we don't have this colorful season here!

Aptly captured for the contest theme...
Vibrant outburst of autumnal colorful foliage!
Excellent reflections.
Sharply focused. Filled up framing.
Good perspective & long depth of field... Thanks for sharing...

Comment from avmurray
This is just a spectacular autumn scene, and you have pictured it so well. I really like the straight on shot because it has allowed you to capture so well the fantastic looking reflections in the mirror like water. I also appreciate the nice and natural colors.

Your photo is as crisp and clear as the autumn itself, and it is sharp and well defined details to be seen in the landscape. It is nothing wrong with the exposure either.

The photo is nicely frame and it is really a good balance in the composition with the rocky area placed off to the left. This is indeed a beautiful and well taken photo with an excellent DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

What a wonderful image, I shot at a small pond here in New Hampshire that looks just like your pond.

The reflection is wonderful and you placed the shoreline perfectly in the center of the shot.

Well planned and well taken!

This is utterly fantastic. The rainbows of autumn colors reflecting in the water makes this photo and ultra great shot.
You really got the best of the best landscapes for this time of year.
Best of luck in the contest.

A beautiful scene with great colors and an excellent reflection. I like the look of the cat tails along the shore and might have zoomed in just a bit to make them more prominent. Good luck in the contest.
