A sunny, autumn day, a lake, an arch bridge, beautiful leaves...reflections of beauty.  This sunny day could not be controlled by any of the filters on hand, brightness everywhere.  Shooting in the midday sun is an issue faced everyday by photographers, and the problem can be solved if the sun is used to enhance the picture.  Look closely to what the sun does to the arch bridge's stones...you can see how alive they become when viewed under bright sunlight!
