More than a reflection of fall colors

fall-color-reflection-14359_staatsI was up early yesterday morning hoping for a beautiful sunrise to compliment the fall colors that we’re enjoying in Minnesota.  But as luck would have it, the cloud cover was too thick and there was no sunshine.  However, it was unusually warm and the colors were still wonderful.  There was enough wind to throw ripples across the lake and there was a shoreline that was mostly protected from the wind.  Looking through the camera lens I was mesmerized by the color reflection in the water.  The slight movement created a blur of colors and the more I looked at it the more I was reminded of the Northern Lights, only here they were playing out as reflections in a northern lake.

    Linda, you never cease to amaze me. It looks very similar to the Northern Lights I have witnessed. Beautiful photo, you have such a great eye through your camera lens.Would love to reconnect once again and just catch up. I believe your wedding has come and gone since we last got together early last winter. I see they have closed the neighbor hood eatery. Tom & Bonnie Thomas

      So good to see your reply, Tom, and I’m glad you enjoyed the photo and saw the similarity to the Northern Lights. Yes, the wedding was wonderful, and time is passing quickly; here we now have winter knocking on our doors. We’ll touch base soon!
