Wet Footprints

This image was taken on the summer solstice; as we move to the autumnal equinox, it's a nice reminder of what those of us in the Midwest are leaving behind!

Ahhh yes summer!!! What wonderful deep vibrant colors and the palm trees are fabulous!! The footprints are a really fun addition to this photo. Yes I guess it is time to move to Fall and the rich colors it will behold for us to enjoy. Is this a HDR photo image??

Great colours and composition Brian! - You controlled the highlights really well which is the bit I find most difficult with my own photos in these kind of conditions.

You have some pretty vivid shadow action on the concrete; all in all -- you've caught sojourner's/vacationer's Florida quite nicely.

Wow, looking at this my immediate thought is "haven", and a bit of "heaven", Brian! :) Wonderful framing and POV (those footprints really take the cake! :) ), and I just love the strong whites against those beautifully complementing oranges and greens, lovely organic colours! :)

Love the atmosphere of this Brian and though sad to see summer go, autumn too holds plenty of mysteries.
Beautifully captured shot.

PS: I want me a palm tree...could you send one by the first crow? LOL

Janice--I wish I had a palm tree myself! I am always amazed at the fact that Indiana is at about the same latitude as the Mediterranean and yet we have such lousy weather in the winter! Viewfinder--I am a huge fan of Florida. I head south whenever I get the chance. This house was on Siesta Key. Rebecca--this place truly was a haven, less that 100 yards from the beach! Organic Mum--I envy you that summer is just in the offing for you! LV--this is indeed an HDR image--thank you for the kind words!
