Nothing Gold Can Stay, a photo from New York, Northeast

Photographer's Note

Nothing Gold Can Stay
by Robert Frost

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold,
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Hi Tom,
This capture is for shure going to be a runner !
Great pov and amazing colors. Perfect moment, just when the dog jumped in the woter. Soon they will be more circles around him. But here, it's just perfect, on this calm surface.
Very nice framing.
TFS and have a nice weekend
Best regards

Hi Tom,
I love this Frost's poem...
And I think that you've made a poetic marriage between title and subject.
The scene is unreal, almost still... and the light so soft and changeable.

Hi, Tom!
He, he, he! I see somebody having fun out there! LOVELY, absolutely LOVELY!!! Great view, great light & colors, GREAT FRIENDS!
This weekend I'll be working, but next one I'll be free, so... if the weather's fine I'm gonna take my Freddie with me to the Island of Marken, nearby Amsterdam, and see if I can sneak in some too!
Thanks for taking time to go through my gallery, I greatly appreciate, my friend.
Hugs to ALL of you, 2-legged & 4-legged!
Have a wonderful weekend, I'll be back later for more reviews.
Cheers,
Fulvio.

Very nice scene, with those autumn-colored trees in the BG, the blue sky and the lake reflections and of course, with the two dogs playing near the lake...

Bonjour Tom,

Le polarisant a bien joué son rôle en accentuant couleurs et contrastes. Un Post processing un peu trop visible qui enlève une partie du naturel de la scène.
Best Regards, Daniel

Hi Tom,
Golden Retrievers and water, a perfect mix.

The perfect lighting to bring out the colors, AWESOME colors!! Most of our leaves are gone now, and we're going into a very depressing time of year. I love how you've captured the dogs enjoying themselves. Very nice composition. TFS

Oh, my gosh, Tom!!
What absolutely brilliant light!! I love the way a small part of the FG is in shadow and the light catches so wonderfully on into the shot. The curve of the lake is fabulous and the dogs add a bit of fun and liveliness to the whole scene. This is just wonderful!! Many thanks and warm regards,
Shelly

Hello Tom,

Is that possibly a retriever, they are hard to keep out of water as inviting as here!
And the autumn atmosphere is terrific, with wonderful light and colours to match...
Simple and beautiful!

Greetings,

Hello Tom,
Good speed to capture the calm water surface with a little wave surrounded the bathing dog, lively to see a pair of dogs spend their nice time here, good exposure and lighting between bright and dim zone, nice cool color, well done.
