Autumn In August

This is gorgeous guys! I remember one you posted not so long ago, and I like that. But for me this is superior. Amazing colour, and I enjoy the comp more so in this. I like the colour contrast... strong FG and a little less in the BG due to the mist. Very delicate and peaceful scene. Well done.

beautiful composition, John. I like this one the best, so far. It does seem early for this much color.

Amazing shot Papa. Love the color and reflection. I cant wait to see the pictures you bring home next week. I'll be there with you soon!

This is heavenly. I just want to step into the photo and relax a bit.

Wonderful shot, John - with all the lovely autumn colors and the soft, hazy look. I like it a lot.

ANother beauty! Love it. Fall is also starting earlier this year north of the border, making me starting to freak out as I had planned my workshops for late October...

I agree with the previous comments. Great mood and light makes this a fine image.

I'm really diggin' this one. The soft light, subtle color palette and beautiful composition all create a lovely image. Nice depth, too. Excellent work!

I really enjoy this one, John. I wouldn't change a thing! here's to fall!

Beautiful autumn scene, John. Love everything here. Excellent capture!

Very harmonious in general. Pleasant photo to look at. I like it.

Oh, wow, do I love this! How serene and dreamy, while still having lots of detail in the tree. Mmmmm. I could sit here for some time and meditate peacefully. The image captures so well the change of the season. I think this is a real winner, John!

A really wonderful capture here, John. This one is truly painterly in the overall presentation throughout. The composition, colors, and excellent detail comes through loud and clear even with the low ground fog. Excellent work.

I could do with a little less water but this is a very inviting scene.

Wonderful image! Such a serene feeling to this scene. I love the soft colors and gentle tones.

Very serene and have your signature style

I was in the Schroon lake area last weekend, but never managed to do any photography..was with my family.

Beautiful, John

It's a perfect scene, i really like the combo of elements and the color mix, very moody. The greens are getting close to being a bit too strong for me, but the saturation is appropriate for this scene.

Nice colors and light. It has a real glow to it. Beautifully done!

Very peaceful and soft (not focus) image.

Incredibly beautiful. Nothing to criticize.

This is what I call a "micro" landscape, and the pastel colors and bright light make it work. A nice little plus is the reflection in the water.

Glorious, John Love the summer/early fall mood this image evokes. Excellent comp, detail and colors. I'm beginnning to see a change here and I'm looking forward to it!

John & Patty,

I like the high key light in the image. It give the scene a very light and airy feel. Really nice.

John,

I could have sworn I commented on this. Well, I know I did in my own mind... :-)

I love this. I'm surprised that the word "painterly" hasn't been made already, which is just my reaction. This is lovely, beautiful and very peaceful. This not only belongs on your wall, but in a gallery.

Hi John,

I have not been able to see NPN for a while (check your E-mail for an explanation), so when I checked today, I was totally delighted to see that this beautiful image got the EP. It takes a special talent to help others appreciate the small wonders of the world, and it’s great to see that recognized.

So beautiful, John and Patty.

Congratulations on the EP.
