Golden Moment
October 20

Home

I finally had a fight with myself and removed the macro
lens to force myself to back away for a few days. The
color is really coming on quickly right now. With only
.001 inches of rain in October, the leaves may wither
and fall off before they change :(

This is one of those shots that makes you want to inhale deeply through the nose then exhaling slowly through the mouth. Thanks, I needed that.

Buz Kiefer		21-Oct-2005 10:14
You know I like the light but that "S curve" in the road is a real hook. Great find and capture Scott.

Exquisite light!! Love how the light illuminates the colored leaves by the side of the walkway, but also how it leads the eye around the bend, taking the viewer deeper into your photo! Stunning shot! Vote!

Beautiful rays of light!

beautiful extraordinary image

Guest		20-Oct-2005 18:44
Glad to see you backing away and looking up. :) Great shot you've made. The composition works well, with the rays of sun leading down into the road, the road then leading deep into the scene, and the glimpses at the sky letting the eye escape the frame. Well done.

Al Chesworth		20-Oct-2005 18:42
Excellent, wonderfull angle on the light. That shaft of light brings out so many colours. Voted.

shatterbug		20-Oct-2005 18:35
Amazing light, comp, and beautiful Fall colors! GMV.

Guest		20-Oct-2005 18:34
Special image this is.. The three rays of sun illuminating the coloured leaves on the roadside is incrdible vision through the lens..the distant curve of the road spot on.. Vtd

Della Huff		20-Oct-2005 18:11
Wow, beautiful rays! Is there a special trick to capturing this? Or maybe it's just that I never see anything like this in urban Boston :)
