Reflections

I do believe I hit some peak color at this location. Once again it is a place I have never been so I had to check it out.

There was one unique perspective in this area that I could not get in many of the other places I have recently shot, and that is reflection. So the theme of this shoot is reflections.

I started out no differently than any other shoot, I started with a few snapshots. About half way through the sun came out and a reflection caught my eye. From that point forward I changed my point of view for every shot afterwards. I had taken advantage of a large body of still water.

 

The trail

A different section of the Lehigh river than some of my previous shots. A section that still has a good portion of the old canals intact.

 

The Locks

Cemented up now but most of the structure is still there, less the wood of course.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Reflections

Ok this is the main theme. The color was there and I tried to eyeball a decent angle for each shot. I was of course limited unless I wanted to swim and stir up the water.

 

I always try and nab a few close ups, so here they are.

 

About the only wildlife on the trail. If you look closely you may be able to see 10 mallard males. Click to enlarge or look at it via the album.

  

Hope your eyes are more relaxed now after gazing at all the eye-candy.
