Description
I must have passed this scene a thousand and one times, and always promised myself that one day, I was going to photograph it. I finally made the decision to go out early on a crisp November morning to do just that.
So, after a major rain and wind event (another one), I crossed my fingers that there were still enough leaves left to create a photo worth sharing. I was not disappointed upon my arrival.
Prior to the rise of the sun, I composed different compositions until I settled on this perspective. Using a 3-stop Neutral Density filter, I was able to achieve a long exposure to create the silky water, and to properly saturate the tree foliage behind the falls just as the sun began to light up the landscape.
This area is located in the town of Monroe, in Orange County, NY.
About the title: Bitonality is the use of two different keys at the same time. In this case, the two tonalities are the warm light of the autumn foliage, and the cool tones of the water in the shadows below the waterfall.
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.
Feel free to contact me with any questions that pertain to my captures.
