From an easy one last week of a trains, "Where in Queens?" comes to this tough one of the great outdoors in autumn. Can you name this scene?

P.S. Anyone with great fall pictures of the borough to share? Email me at queens.guide@about.com or contact on Flickr .

Could be as number of tidal estuaries ponds. I’ll take a stab at Baisley Pond in South Jamaica.

Not Kissena. Not Baisley. Closer to Baisley.

Cunningham Park?

Not Cunningham. I don’t think there’s such a large body of water at Cunningham.

The closest guess so far was Baisley Pond Park. Go east from Baisley.

Nope. That’s too far east. You’re very very close.

Idlewild Park?

So many close answers, but no one solved it. The answer is Springfield Park. Here’s some more about the park: http://www.nycgovparks.org/parks/Q107/

Many thanks to the photographer for the stump!
