Wonderland
Wonderland is what happens to the earth in fall, all the colors start to pop. These idle canoes were there under the trees making for a nice addition to the already colorful trees.
This picture has two complementary pictures which can be displayed together to show the depth of color and the magic of the crystal clear water and the general river area of Clinton. Taken along the South Branch River in Clinton NJ 10/08

It’s one of my favorite spots near where I live, any season of the year, but this day everything just seemed to fall into place. The light was perfect, the reflections great all that helps.

Thanks Rick, I agree, it is a lovely little town in NJ. The state is very diverse, but people only think of the NJ Turnpike. We’ll just have to keep showing them there is more to it than that.
