Tom, the subtly coordinated, gently pleasing colors all look good. Interestingly, the strong edges of the manmade structures in the garden view make for more dramatic viewing.

Thank you, Mark… much appreciated.

Enjoyable scenes from a part of the country I’ve never been to; thanks for sharing. Happy Holidays!

Thank you, John… let me know if you ever visit here.

I’d love that!

Nice series. They all compliment each other well.

Thank you, Michael… much appreciated.

Tom: Really nice mix of autumn colors with the greens of the pines. I like the contrast. Well seen and very nicely composed and presented. >=))>

Thank you, Bill for your review and comments.

Hi Tom,
The woodland scenes work very well as a theme and I am enjoying the subdued color palette as it looks very realistic and natural. Very nice collection for the year! Looks like you had the perfect day for your walk in the woods.

Hi Ed: Thank you for your comments. I was fortunate on the primary day I took these that the light was consistent and the Fall colors were most complementary. The Duke Gardens photograph was earlier in the year, but the positive feeling of nature came through to me.
