Autumn at Speedwell Lake

Uploaded: October 26, 2004 04:23:04

Description

Speedwell Lake is in Northwest NJ. This autumn is particularly spectacular, probably due to a wet summer and wind free fall. This image was cropped slightly to eliminate a fisherman who could have been identified. The colors are real, no adjustments have been made.

hello Debby
I just saw your image and it is very impressive, I was hoping to get some great autumn colours last year but our autumn was kind of 'poopie' so I didnt have too much luck.
a lovely image .. great work
