I have this one hanging on my wall as a 45 x 30 metal print and sold a copy to a client last year for Christmas. BTW, while it’s not “standard” composition, I like the tension created by the clump of reeds in the lower right. ### Technical Details 5D3, 24-105 f4 IS II @ 50mm, 1/8 s, f/16, iso 200, tripod, polarizer and cable release ---

Mark, what a beautiful fall foliage and reflection photo this is! If you had not mentioned the clump of reeds, my eyes would have never seen them. I was glued to the foliage and reflections. I also love the light creeping in on the right side and adding more brilliance to the soft greens competing with the yellows and oranges. Beautiful image! ---

Mark, the light and fall colors are stunning. I love your point about the little clump of reeds in the LRHC. You caught me reaching for the cloning tool… 😃 I can only imagine the impact this has at the 45 x30 sized metal print you’ve mentioned. Excellent scene overall… 👍 ---

Beautiful scene, Mark. I’m not surprised that you have it on the wall. ---

This drew my eyes for sure. While I don’t officially have a “bucket list”, I do have some things I’d like to do sometime if they work out. Fall color in the mountains is one of them. I love all those golden leaves. I didn’t see the reeds at first either. I do kind of like their character there, but you’re right about the tension. I think for me it’s the position right at the edge. I’m sure this is very striking large on metal as you have it!
