Trying to Capture a Little of the Fall

Yesterday was a day to make some photos. During the day I went out with my daughter to see how far the leaves have come. They really have come a long way in a short period of time. It won’t be long before they are off the trees now. At night I went to campus to shoot some portraits with the university as the backdrop. I was not looking to make a photo like this when I set out, but when I saw it I had to give it a try. The storm clouds were rolling in, and a lot of the leaves on this lake were turning. I have photographed this small lake a few times, but none since my photo 365 project ended. I come from a city with many lakes. The lack of public lakes here in town make it hard on me. I will have to go out of my way to find some more water shots before the leaves are gone. I like the idea of this shot, but I could use a little more color in it.
