Silent Autumn

Ok, here's my contribution to this collection. I have chosen this one because it is a special image for me for several reasons. The conditions were just great - I was alone in that National Park in mid/north Finland, spend the night in a hut and woke up to a silent morning next to a calm lake. The mental state I was in during that time was also a bit different: First job after graduating, 2.5 months assigment to work in Finland as "training phase". Lots of new things happening in my life back then and a time I remember well. And this one got picked as EP - the first I got on this site.

Here it is again in a 4X5 crop with a different title.

Best Regards,

Dietrich

I love the color contrast in this between the trees/grass and the water/fog - just splendid. So peaceful and calm too.

Very ethereal Didl! I love the silence and blue/purple hues. The contrast with the more earthy tones is wonderful.

This really evokes those feelings of being alone in a quiet wild place in the early morning.
