Droesher's Mill in Fall Color

Thank you for indulging me for my lighthouse shots from the Lighthouse Challenge. I love lighthouses as you all probably realise by now.

Thank you also for my son's birthday wishes. It was a lovely day and he enjoyed it very much.

To answer the quesions about polarizers, yes I use circular polarizers almost every time I shoot outside to cut down on glare and to give the skies and other colors more pop.

Anonymous...thanks for the suggestions. I actually have shot all of the places you mentioned, save for the one in Sterling Forest which I will have to check out.

The gun baterries in Sandy Hook are indeed interesting. I will have to dig through my archives to see if I managed any decent ones.

The covered bridge was one of my earliest posts, and it was "lost" when I transitioned to a .com and outside hosting. I had several early posts based on Bridges, all of which were lost when I transitioned. I am planning on re-visiting those spots in the future now that I have a better understanding of shooting digital, and a better digital camera.

I grabbed this shot last Thursday afternoon after finishing up my errands. I drove past it on my way to do my errands and thought the trees were just so stunning I knew I had to stop back there when I finished the errands and before picking up the boys from school.

It is an old mill that is now office space. I had to shoot this through the iron railing that tops the bridge where I stood. It was a little difficult to get a decent angle through the railing. This view is the prettiest since it makes the mill look much more isolated than it really is.

Wonderful picture. I like the line of white water across the frame. The color of the mill and tree looks fabulous.

Love the colours. Catching a good shot "by chance" while out doing something else is more satisfying don't you think ?

Excellent colors! It's too bad the leaves are now gone...

Very colorful scene. It took me a while to notice that the house is surrounded by water, at first glance it looked like a road to me. (bad notebook lcd, needs to be replaced) I also like how the scene is framed by the trees. Nice photo!
