 This was one of the best days of photography I've had in a looonnng time. The weather was perfect the trees were beautiful and I was with a good friend. What could be better? Well, maybe a ribbon. Oh, to dream. :-)

I've been trying to make a conscious effort to focus more on the photography and less relying on photoshop. With this photo I tried to stay more to the natural side of the scale. Had to really fight the will to really punch the colors up. Don't get me wrong, I still LOVE my photoshop. :-)
