A shot from this morning. This is sunrise in a farmer's field north of Ottawa, ON on the edges of Gatineau Park. It was cold, frosty and quite misty.

A nice reflection! But I think the reflection area needs to be brightened up and the shadows brightened. It also looks like the lower left corner was cut off? Must be some concrete, but it is distracting in the shot.
A great lens compared to my previous mid range zooms, but at long focal length you really see it's weaknesses. I'm saving for that 135mm f2 and 200 F2.8 though... I had a 48 inch long canvas print of it made for my mom because she really liked the photo, then one of her friends bought it for 2000 Z.A.R = about $250 u.s

Jim thanks for the comments. Unfortunately I didn't have my nd grads with me. I might have been able to better control the wide range of light in this scene. I knew the cement dam might be distracting but I did not want to lose the tops of the pines in the reflection. I have other views and they all have some issues due to the light range .
After many years of looking at all your wonderful fall color photos I finally made it to Colorado to see all the gold with my own eyes. It was wonderful...
My attempt does not even come close to the masterful images in this thread, but being in the UK, fall colour is somewhat limited/variable. This London Plane however, was nicely in colour:
. Lets just say that fall colours aren't exactly prolifc in Queensland, Aus.
