Red Roof

Although this falls into my "Barn" series, the image was made with the roof in mind. When we came upon this sight, I kept trying to shoot barn when my head kept saying roof. We know and have seen red barns, but red roofs? And how often are you happy with a bright white sky! Luckily I smartened up and aimed up.

Autumn

I was thinking Autumn, color and with the fog...it made the possibilities better. As a juxtaposition to the life and color of the leaves, I added the dead old trunk of the maple in the background but kept the focus off it to strengthen the already strong leaf red. In the end you can't help but go back to the dead trunk. The shot turns out to be about the trunk.
