SHALLOW
Uploaded: October 15, 2003
I used a verry shallow DOF to capture this Red maple leaf showing off her beauty in the shallow waters of the resevior in October.. I shot this in very low light just around the time of the setting sun. The water levels drop so much this time of the year that I can walk on the bottom without getting my feet wet.

I like the contrast between the vivid red of the leaf, and the dark neutral colors around it. Very pretty! #66795Paul Coco October 15, 2003
