Challenge: Where You Live (Advanced Editing I)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix 2600Z
Location: Lake Rotoroa Hamilton New Zealand
Date: Apr 21, 2004
Galleries: Performance, Water
Date Uploaded: Apr 21, 2004

 Taken on the 2nd floor of the Waikato hospital's cafe the only way I could get this without shooting the image through glass.
The weather was a bit overcast late afternoon but the trees at this time of year are wonderful
As In a postcard I tweaked the saturation sharpened lightly and cloned out an annoying building in the front
This is very near to where I live and we visit this place almost daily it's a beautiful lake almost in the middle of Hamilton New Zealand named Lake Rotoroa
The city itself is quite plain as city's go
I love Autumn and the trees are so lovely this year I hope you like it I do and consider myself very priviledged to live here.

Wow. What gorgeous color. Is it still autumn where you are?

Ha! This pic must have been taken in Australia or there nearby since it had to be validated in reference to the title.
Nice view!

Calling it that, you obviously wanted the prestige of a DQ query!!!! As for the pic, the reds unbalance the composition and take up too much of the frame

Beautiful! I love the red trees in the foreground.

Nice vibrant colors in a good composition. Too bad the sky doesn't help you much.

If this is Autumn, Then it would be disqualified. I will assume it just has the appearence of Autumn. Nice colors.

Brightening up up foreground might be an interesting experiment
