This is another Fall photo that i took yesterday. I love the tree in the left side of the photo that is blurry and out of focus. It has a Bokeh like effect with the settings that i used to take the leaves that are turning color. Fall is really in the air for use in the St Louis Metro Region.

Cool Mornings and nice days...
Winter is just around the corner...

Original photo taken in March of 2008.

This was taken in its original form on my first trip to St Louis. I did a crop of the photo getting rid of the building that was located in the bottom of the photo, just leaving the reflection of the courthouse and a few other buildings. Here is a link to the original photo titled "Random Artistic Shots..."

I think that this was a very hard photo to take. The lighting was minimal with a spot shining on the object. Its colors are very neutral and not bright and the background is neutral as well.

All in all, i think that the a200 did a great job in representing this object given the conditions. The cam was in "Landscape" mode shooting in Aperture Priority with DRO+ on. I shot at f/9 to get a clear, sharp photograph with a good depth of field.

Give me some feedback on this one folks!!
