The View from Squirrel Ridge: Autumn Reflections, Carrier Arboretum

Autumn Reflections, Carrier Arboretum

November at the Duck Pond

The Edith J. Carrier Arboretum at JMU is a place we return to again and again. It's convenient to Harrisonburg's stores and doctors' offices so we find ourselves in the area, and it's a great place to make a pretty day into a beautiful one.

I didn't use artistic filters on these images but I did brighten them by merging a duplicate layer using "soft light" and also saturating the color in Photoshop.

Wow, the colours in that first shot are stunning.
I love the shot of the Mallard gliding through the colour palette too.
