Lurking Below the Surface, October 13, 2017

I felt like the fall colors of 2017 lasted a good long time. Maybe because I was trying to get out and take more photos than usual. On this particular day, I drove out to Fort Robinson twice, because I felt like there was plenty to see and shoot. With calm water on Cherry Creek Pond, and just the right angle of sun, I found an underwater and surface scene that I really liked. The reflection of the trees on the water adds a middle element to the underwater foreground and upright tree background.
