Such a beautiful building, scene, and composition. Love the fall leaves and more, Jean! :) kk
Jean Wright replied:
Thank you. When I saw the way the sunlight was illuminating the leaves, I was compelled to stop and take a number of shots from different angles. This one seemed to capture the inn and the maple leaves best.
