Pic-of-the-Day, 9/24/11

I doubt this pic is really all that good, but it's one of my favs. That's probably because it appeals so strongly to my mathematical brain because of all the vertical, horizontal, and slanted lines. It's soooooooo, well, orderly. LOL

And it's another example of just being alert to the world around you. I had taken some fall foliage pics near the lake about 200 yards behind me and was walking back to my car (up the steps and to the left) trudging along with a lot of equipment (camera, tripod, large bag of stuff, etc.).

The first thing that caught my eye was the blues in the steps, followed by the wonderful light, and then the tunnel effect of all the rafters, etc.

I think only slide film could've captured the range of darks and lights without losing the very attractive details.

And a final note: I shot this because it very much pleased my eye, which is all that really matters...
