Winkworth Arboretum: the lake by quietpurplehaze

Winkworth Arboretum: the lake

We had a trip out today to the arboretum, hoping to find some colourful trees but, as you can see, most of them are still green. My eye was drawn to take this shot by the photograper with his tripod on the opposite bank. He's just by the only red small tree and shortly after I took this was gazing skywards as if for inspiration.
Fabulous vista and reflectio

A lovely calm scene with a stunning sky. It is quite incredible that the leaves are so green still almost into November.

I can't quite workout the greenness of the leaves - is it all the rain we had?

I always wonder now if that other photographer is a '365er' and I'm missing out by not introducing myself lol.
beautiful setting for your photo

Thanks for all your views, comments and favs and I was surprised (and pleased) to find this shot on PP when I got to the computer this morning. This type of landscape shot is a bit unusual for me so I was doubly pleased!
