Instant Crush

I stumbled on this scene by accident. Walking through the trees and ferns late October afternoon just zoning out, no camera, no particular thoughts really.

I could not believe my eyes. I have never seen anything like this in all years I have visited Acadia - the colors, contrasty and saturated were so bright, three-dimensional and truly grand.

I stood there for several minutes. Looking up and all around. I needed this, I was looking for inspiration, to be motivated in my photographic journey as this year has been the hardest to find the time or desire.

You judge for yourself - to me, it was an instant blush to my face, blood rushing to every fingertip and than... silence. A perfect moment with nature.
