Late fall -- Michael Steven Thomas

Michael Steven Thomas is a senior at Essex High School and he wants to go to photography school in the fall. Here’s what he says about this photo: “This is one of four images of a leaf as it lives on the tree, falls and heads down stream. I try to spend most of my time trying to work with nature photography as much as I can, but I also enjoy working on architecture photography.”

Late Fall

Dear Michael,
This is the best picture I have seen on this website so far!! Before I clicked on it to get a better look I didn't think that it was a reflection in the water. The sun was in the perfect spot when you took this shot. I love how the bottom of the picture is dark and it gets lighter near the top. The ripples in the water give the picture a good texture. Good luck in photography school.

Sincerely,
Danielle
