Thank you for all the votes. I noticed this pond duirng an autumn hay ride and took a shot. It was so reflective but the trees were still green. So the reflection challenge came and I went back to the farm and since the hay rides were over I had to ask permission to go and shoot. They agreed. I got there and all the leaves were gone. Our fall went from green to nothing or green to yellow then nothing. So I decided to give the R72 a try since I had a nice reflection. I did bracket and in hindsight should have used one that had a better exposure in the middle (where its blown out), This one converted better than the other brackets. I wish I had advanced editing bc I did burn the middle on an outtake. Thanks so much to Marbo for the inspiration and to everyone for the votes.
