Bring back Autumn !

Description

Only cause I'm tired of cold weather...

This is the mill at Stone Mountain Park, on the outskirts of Atlanta. I visited the park in the AM then flew out of Atlanta that afternoon, two days after the BP shoot.

F16, 1/2 sec, ISO 200, 24mm focal length, Orton technique.
