Description

Towards the very end of my time spent at Cascade Lake Park in Warwick, NY, I wanted to capture a few more reflection shots before the light got too harsh, and the breeze became more of a brisk wind.

Normally once out of the golden hour after sunrise, I'll pack up and head home, but in this case the light was filtered just enough, and with combining the use of a stronger Neutral Density Filter, I was able to photograph a quintessential autumn scene.

Wonderful foliage color, terrific reflections and the agitated lake surface caused by the breeze made for an interesting middle ground compositional element (not to mention the Canadian geese).


About the title:

Retrograde inversion is a musical term that literally means "backwards and upside down": "The inverse of the series is sounded in reverse order." Retrograde reverses the order of the motif's pitches: what was the first pitch becomes the last, and vice versa.

Reflections equals inversions.

I am honored to be able to offer my photography of the beautiful Hudson Valley in New York and beyond for all of your purchasing considerations.

All of my photographs are available as prints, wall art, home decor, apparel, weekend bags, etc and are NOW offered with a canvas border, title, electronic signature and the year it was taken in 'The Signature Series Gallery'. You may continue to buy my photographs as they have always been available prior in all of my other galleries as well.
