D309-2012 Leaves floating atop a reflection of bare limbs on trees...emblematic to me of the end of autumn.

12/12/12 - Reflections in the produce department at the local Fry's; I looked up and saw the apples reflected in the scale.  Shot at 1/125th sec. and with the EV bumped up just a bit.  In retrospect, it might have been a more interesting shot if I'd slanted the angle a bit.  It seems a little static to me but I do like something about the apples reflected there.

Thanks for all your comments on my shot inside San Xavier Mission.  I do wish I'd taken just a moment or two more to compose the shot a bit better.  As my skills in shooting have improved and I am more confident about my settings, I think I've gotten a bit careless sometimes about the composition and lining the shot up perfectly, as I think I'll be able to correct any problems in photoshop.  And I did correct some of the problems with that shot, but I wish I had found a way to not cut off the top of the curve at the top.  Oh, well, we live and learn.

Shayla and Mark have visited these pools for nearly a decade, and never has it been so full, so balanced, so gorgeous as this moment when the winds calmed for a brief respite on a windy afternoon.
