The image was taken on hike at Jaycook recreational park in NM, Oct 23 to visit our son.
While driving though to find a parking spot for a hike, we sported a lake that to my surprise, I could see that water was Absolutely still, the reflection of the foliage across the far shore looked amazing.
The foliage was not fully turned to fall colors but what a perfect opportunity to capture reflections. So, I rushed back to the car near by, got my tripod and canon 5D MK4 with 24-105mm mounted. Set the aperture to f11 and mounted a 2stop ND I had handy in my backpack.
I took a few single shots and another panoramic capture consisting of 11 images to stitch later. The image here was one of the single shots set at widest focal length.

I used lights room classic to process the image for highlights and color adjustments and then moved it to PS to re-size and saved it as jpeg for posting.
