    I really like the reflection of the clouds on the water! The colors of the leaves look a bit dull though, coming from a newbie's perspective.

    This looks overexposed to me.
    Though the clouds do retain some detail.
    Maybe it is also because I usually go for darker photos myself...

    And familiar, kind of. Is this a spot where many photographers go to to take photos? Other members from around there might have been that self-same spot before you ...

    Thanks for the comments. The colors were somewhat dull as they were past their peak color and had started to fade. Here is a darker version that is close to the original.

    You gas up the marker, put on the gloves, strap on the mask, and walk onto the field, it doesn't matter that you failed a test, that you didnt get the girl or that you got a ticket on the way here... your world is right for the next couple hours, this is your heaven on earth... live it... love it
