Winter's Pier by taffy

Winter's Pier

Taken on Thursday on the trip to Lake Geneva, at the same sight as the Tree on the Lake. I loved the textures formed by the peeling paint and the lines of the pilings. Winter is definitely coming!

You've had some awesome shots this week beginning with that fantastic composition of the lily and that night shot and the water scenes. Have enjoyed everything you've put up!
November 25th, 2013  
Great POV and unexpected, muted tones of the pier and water. Looks lonely--not one boat in sight!

@milaniet Thanks Milanie. I so appreciate your comments on my photos and the support. It's been quite an awesome week in terms of photos and my 365 friends' responses. So thank you!
November 25th, 2013

This is such a beautiful shot, Taffy. Thank you for stopping by my project and commenting. I do not post a photo a day and commenting happens as I have time. I get back to as many people as I can but it is hard to do so as those I follow and follow me has grown. WIsh I had a lot more time. Photography has been a lifesaver for me. Got me out of a rut finding 365. What a fun place and community.

fantastic image Taffy,
November 25th, 2013  
@darsphotos I feel the same way about 365 and think we each need to cut each other whatever slack needed so that we can participate as best we can. Thanks for the comments tonite. I look forward to seeing more of your work.

What a wonderful pleasing shot, there´s so much to like here.
November 25th, 2013  
@taffy Those that stick with you or pop in when they can are the people that I keep in contact with the most. I have some that I go to and check out their photos as I love them so much. You are welcome. Your photos are awesome. I do not get out but to our park and neighbors yards and an occasional trip to visit my Mom in the San Francisco area. My son put a lot of work into the finale of my first year. If you ever have 24 minutes to spare, please check it out, it is the last thing on year one. Nothing that fantastic but the photos that I took for my first year.

@vickisfotos @sunraye @kchuk @danitech @38dcmoder @simster @sjouk @fueast Thank you so much for your visit and comment on the pier shot. I thought ti was so interesting to see this one as there were about 4 piers, but the others had all had the planks already pulled up for replacement (I assume) and were blocked from access. I felt so lucky to get to go out on this one before they closed it down as well. It clearly needs repair!
November 27th, 2013  
I'm a sucker for pier shots like this Taffy, Fav!
November 27th, 2013  
This has such a wonderful leading line it makes me want to run down that wonderfully textured path and jump into the lake!

I love the colours in this, very nice leading line great pink glow on the sky and a little bit retro feel.
