Trees Softly Dreaming in Water

This is another shot I went, for better or for worse, out looking for. I needed a “Trees on Tuesday” entry for Google+ and this kind of shot seemed about the best I could do in this season between leaves and snow. Besides, I had not done on like this in a while.

So this is Old Falls Pond on the Mousam River in late afternoon on a November day. I took quite a few shots from this spot, with different effects in the gently moving water, before a gust of wind completely fractured the surface and I lost the reflections.

Canon SX50HS. Program with auto iContrast and Shadow Fill. 250mm equivalent field of veiw. f8 @ 1/40th @ ISO 160. Processed in Lightroom for intensity, clarity, and sharpness. Some color adjustment to taste.
