Here are some shots from Labor Day Weekend. Not exactly the best time of the year to visit the park but still quite an experience. Colors were starting to turn so fall time should be gorgeous in a couple of weeks (if it isn't already).

Cheers,

Erich

    Very nice. Love the foreshortening that gives strong and distinct fore-, middle- and backgrounds.

    And this is a super reflection with wonderful light and composition.

    This is more like it !!!
    Now this is fine photography! Well exposed; well composed. Dynamic range well within the limits of your media (film or sensor). I especailly love #1, 4,&5.

    Hi everyone and thanks for the kind remarks! I've edited the initial post and annotated each picture with where I took the shot. I'm still working on several shots and will be posting a travelogue in the Journeys forum soon. Work-in-progress at http://hbphoto.smugmug.com/gallery/1878188.

    I experimented with Photoshop's HDR feature and got this. What do you all think?
