Natural colours red, yellow and blue are reflected fascinated on the lake. Because of autumn colours take our breath away.
Having recently uploaded a couple of photos of thermal pools taken within the old Faithful complex in Yellowstone Park it got me thinking about other locations where I have seen similar sights. Iceland sprang to mind but New Zealand even more so.
This photo which shows just some of the range of colours caused by such activity was taken within the Wai-o-Tapu reserve close to Rotorua on the north island in New Zealand.
We now face the peak of Autumn colours, nature is switching to stand-by. River Weser, Porta Westfalica, Ostwestfalen, Germany
I see the colours change every year in early October in the part of Ontario where I live. Farther north, the change in the colours occurs earlier. Right now the air is dry and the wind is cool but the sunlight makes the air warm at certain times as well. The smell in the air is vaguely that of winter but not really winter. For me this is the best time of year in this region in particular for hiking.
I shot this in various ways including with a flash and in monochrome, but I decided to keep this version. For me the vivid colours and the grain in the photo are appealing. The lens I used could not go deeper than f/22, even so the focus is not too bad to my eye. The image is direct from the camera except for conversion to jpeg. I hope you like the result.
Hi there,
The Virginia Creeper leaf had conveniently fallen right next to a bit of hydrangea that had previously been white. Always nice to find bits of colour where you least expect it!
Thank you for looking and for leaving a comment! Have a wonderful day!
