Lake and Sky, New Hampshire. © Copyright 2022 G Dan Mitchell.
Water lilies, reflected sky, and autumn colors at a New Hampshire Lake.
You may have seen a different version of this scene rendered in black and white — I posted it not long after our return from photographing New England fall color this year. During the first days of our visit we photographed in the iconic Kancamagus Highway region between Concord and Lincoln — and it was, as predicted, quite spectacular, if crowded. But then we began to explore a bit more widely, and we stopped to photograph this lake on a long loop that took us much farther north in New Hampshire.
There’s one other semi-notably thing about this photograph — I made it on an iPhone 14. I’m not giving up my Big Boy Cameras any time soon, but on this trip I played around with using the iPhone to capture some subjects — quick panoramas, record shots, photographs after dark. In a few cases, in addition to setting up the big camera and tripod, I put the iPhone in raw-capture mode and made a few photographs just to see what it could do. The answer? Quite a bit!
