Today's photo features another cameo appearance by my bloggy friend Linda, author of the always interesting Are We There Yet?I took this as she was shooting photos at the covered bridge in West Cornwall, Ct. I didn't dare to go down the steps toward the river, even though they were concrete and looked sturdy enough. Linda is clearly more adventurous than I!
We had a fun foliage trip, full of laughs and leaves, but no lunch..We did stop for dinner at a diner. ;-)

The mighty Housatonic River, and Linda too, are covered in a dramatic shade. It was positively balmy in those October days, unlike the cold of today...
Nice shadow and great composition, I like the balance in this.
Terrific shadow shot for the day and I love your composition, too! Sounds like you had a fun day! It's cold here today, but we do have some sun for a change and it's wonderful! Enjoy your weekend, Patti!

I loved how you framed this... with Linda in the corner! That water looks pretty cold, and like the current was plenty strong!
What a great shot, Patti...
The house in the background is to die for. Imagine, living near the bank of a river?
Fantastic shot!
Happy SSS & TC,

Linda is absolutely adventerous, did you guys go to any cemeteries

I love the half light/half shade
and that slip of Linda in the corner
Beautiful capture Patti, I would have go down too hehehe.
My SSS is Santa Ski Slope shadows!
A lovely fall of shadow deepening the colour contrasts of the view!
AH! What fun to be out with a friend on a lovely autumn day!
What a great shot. It does look very cold, and that house is stunning.
What a beautiful place to live.
I like how the shadow so perfectly slices through the middle of the image! Reminds me of an origami fold! A lovely photo. Enjoy the rest of your weekend Patti )
DREAM SCENE
They went to the river to shoot;
Their journey it did bear much fruit:
The swift-running stream
(Photographer’s dream),
Was playing itself like a flute.

Nicely done river ShadowShot. I don't blame you for not venturing down the steps....probably slippery and who wants to fall into a probably chilly river?! Happy SSS.
Nice shot and scenery! Sounds like you both had a great day!
I remember this! And they were quite sturdy steps if I remember correctly so I don't think there was much danger of me tumbling into the Housatonic! I'm sure if I had, though, you would have gotten one heck of a shot for your blog then!
Compared to what we've been having for temperatures lately, I sure am missing those October days we had. I hope this isn't the way the rest of the winter is going to go - my heating budget can definitely NOT afford it and one can only wear so many layers!
And I don't know why we didn't eat lunch ... too busy not finding foliage, perhaps?
What a great photo! I like how your friend is in the corner! Great shadow, too, really sharp.
