This is another in a series of pictures I took in August, 2012. I posted the first one in September, 2014 (see Hudson Valley View).

It was taken early one morning just a few steps away from our house. I like the delicate colors. Normally I don’t like it when people say that one of my pictures “looks just like a painting”. However, in this case I think it does – maybe a bit like something from the Hudson River School.

Taken with a Panasonic Lumix LX-3. At the time I judged this picture to be too dark and contrasty so I just left it. However, I periodically review my old pictures with the view to deleting some of them. During this process I often come across pictures, which seem to have some potential. This is one of them. Since I took it in 2012 my post-production skills have improved greatly and I could see possibilities, which were not apparent to me when I took it.
