Each of our 13 guest rooms includes it own porch for enjoying the tranquil ambiance of Chautauqua. Private bathrooms and fully equipped kitchens are also features of each room.

This Red Maple sapling was defiantly growing up the trunk of a mature Sugar Maple, showing its splash of colour in Burlington, Vermont..

Closeup of the trunk of the large maple tree in my backyard. I thought the texture was interesting. Glen Burnie, MD, March 30, 2012.

Heavy elements, detaled carving, dominant scale, aged finishes, rich dark colors, mixing of materials from wood to metal to plaster. Aged finish even when new.

Took a few shots today of the Japanese maple outside of my house, now that it's opened up for the season. I liked the contrast that was already there and thought maybe a moody paper texture would enhance it. I ended up using a stained piece of cardboard as the texture. I like the way it came out.

September Colour, Maple leaves. Kashegaba Lake, Ontario. 091

Taken in late fall, 2009, after the rain, before the leaves fell off the next week in a windstorm.

hint for taking a good photo in kyoto in the fall: look for the spots where like a dozen people have set up tripods and are laboriously waiting for the perfect moment. of course, i took this in 2 seconds.
