We’re back at the nature preserve, three weeks into Fall 2008, with the first notes of the season’s color edging into the scene. As I was walking past the pond, I saw how perfectly the clouds were reflecting on its wonderfully still surface. It’s a shame the real clouds are overexposed, but that helps draw our attention to the surface, and that’s probably a good thing for this photo.
