Marty- I would love to be sitting on that dock right now with my fishing poles, taking in all the goegeous colors of fall, the beauty of the reflective colors on the water and enjoying a fried bolona sandwich. You have given us such a splendid view of this place, one that we would all love to be able to go to at any time.Sam Britt October 21, 2010
Beautiful color, reflections & use of the frac filter, Marty. #8988777Maria A. Gonzalez October 22, 2010
Very creative and colorful,Marty. #8989107Marty Straub October 22, 2010
Thank you all! Your encouragement helps so much everytime I put my finger to the shutter release. #8989534Marcel J. Fernandez October 22, 2010
Rich color and beautiful reflection. Yes, it looks like October. #8989713Mitch Spence October 23, 2010
That's a perfectly gentle use of the filter I think, Marty. Perfect and gentle both. It produced a happy kind of dreaminess that would be hard to get otherwise. I am fascinated by the combination of deeper colors in the reflections and lighter, softer ones in the "reality." #8991373JO ANN CLEVELAND October 23, 2010
Totally gorgeous Marty!jo ann c. #8991726

Like a wonderful autumn dream...that I seem to be having nightly anymore, missing the NE as I do this time of the year. The soft touch of frac gives your treeline such a soft dreamy ethereal look..but the boldly colored reflections announce Fall in all it's glory..I love the contrast between the two! Excellently thought out, Marty and beautifully produced! #8994748Randy D. Dinkins October 25, 2010
Great shot of this old dock, fall colors and treatment! #8995647Dianna Murphy November 04, 2010
