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.

lovely colours on the trees.....
hmmm the mill does look kinda deserted..!
nice shot,seems like it was quite tough getting a good perspective beacuse of the railing....
Good one Laurie! Maybe a little bit too saturated but i like it :)
wonderful autumn colours; this image has a great painterly feel to it!
One of your best shots so far. Dang Laurie, you is on fireeee. Quick, print on canvass and frame and sell for a gizzillion dollars.
Really really really good cvapture.

Oh, this is a beautiful scene! The colors this year do seem to be the best they've been in years.
Beautiful colors!!
stunning colors
This must be breath-taking in person. The colors are really stunning.
The colors are incredible! I loved the water rushing too! Awesome!
Wonderful picture. I like the line of white water across the frame. The color of the mill and tree looks fabulous.
Wow! Jaw dropping colours. Great shot!
Splendid!!! Incredible colors. I opened this page and went -wow!!! love it!
Now that's some serious color! Wow! Lovely shot!!!
beautiful autumn colours Laurie! great landscape image :)
I love the colors and lighting in this, what a beautiful place.
You certainly have some impressive fall displays around your neck of the woods. Beautiful shot Laurie.
very serene
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...
Regards,
Jason
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!
I like the colours.
