I was walking through Banner Marsh near Canton Illinois on a late fall morning. The fog was very thick and I was hoping for some wildlife shots. Instead, I was surprised by this little burst of color in what an otherwise very dull scene.
This image was captured at Chapman State Park in Pennsylvania. The sun was quickly setting and I was running out of light. I only had my Tamron Sp 150-600MM f/5-6.3 Di VC USD lens attached to my Canon 5D Mk IV. This is absolutely not a landscape lens. I managed to get this shot as the sun completely dissapeared behind the mountains. This image won 1st place in the 2018 Forest Park Nature Center photo contest for the landscape category.
While hiking at Marilla Reservoir in Bradford, PA during a foggy morning sunrise I noticed this solo tree across the lake. The golden leaves were such a strong contrast against the dark green evergreens.
