One can find great photography locations just about anywhere, as many of you are aware. I am confident that each of you have some spots nearby that draw you in again and again. Some days it’s just for a hike, and other days you see something that you want to photography.
When visiting my good friend, George, one of those places is Devil’s Hopyard State Park in East Haddam, Connecticut. This park has some photogenic waterfalls, but more can be discovered…
You can see quickly what caught my eye in this scene. The early autumnal colors behind the bridge gave me just a tinge of yellow and warmth. The pine tree provided a little bit of framing. And the bridge path leads towards a bit of mystery.
Overall, this image makes for a soothing print to hang on the wall.
I love simple compositions like this. You’ve used the branch to frame the bridge, creating a frame without an actual frame.
Thank you! You’re spot on with what I wanted to pull together in this shot.
