I so want to bring my motor home there! It looks like a fabulous place to be, and those gorgeous fall colours. Love the shadows, and the added interest of the lake to the right. Stunning work.

I love this picture. It looks like a good place to hide from all the thing that bog us down in life. I love the color and the picnic tables blends in so well I almost didn't even see it. I see what looks to be water which makes it even more peaceful. The clarity is good, it is well focused and I like the light as it blends through the trees upon the ground. hank you for sharing.

Thank you so very much for your wonderful review! It was so quiet and peaceful, this is a favorite place of ours, it?s 440 miles from our home but we try to visit at least once a year. Well

The scenery captured in this photo makes the viewer think: I wished I could camp there. It is a beautiful place. The bench looks very inviting. This is indeed a place to relax and enjoy nature. The photo has good depth. The colors are nicely natural. The play of light and shadows is intriguing. The photo is well composed, framed and balanced.

Thanks so much! This is just the name of one of the towns up in Alaska?s Interier.

Absolutely. Away from the buzz and smells of city life! The glorious fall colours are taking getting darker. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

I didn't know there was a place named North Pole in Alaska. Let alone that it would have trees in fall color and leaves on the ground. Beautiful composition with fantastic colors.

Thank you so very much! This is a small town located up in Alaska?s Interior, north of Fairbanks, which is the second largest city in Ak. North Pole is awesome, the street light posts are candy canes and even the McDonalds arches are candy canes, there is also a Santa Claus House and a reindeer farm !

Such a nice peaceful scene. Again it reminds me of growing up in Idaho and always camping with my parents. The leaves are already turning and falling which means that the air is getting crisp and clean. I can't remember, are those Birch or Aspens? Maybe neither but I remember them in many of the places we used to camp. Great scene Pat ~ Steve

This looks a beautiful place to camp, Pat, with the lovely trees providing shelter, the table and bench already there and water nearby. I like the angle you used for this showing the interesting patterns made by the sun shining through the trees and the fallen leaves on the grass. Very good lighting and focus showing a nice clear image. Great composition. Suzanne
