Great comp and DOF. Beautiful light & colors, and I like the patterns created by the branches. This is really nitpicky, but I think this would be even better if you would clone out the spots on the leaves on the left side. They seem to draw my eye for some reason.

I like the gold against the blurred orange and the red twigs against green. Nice use of dof. Frame is a tad more than I prefer. Well done. Ken s

Love this one Jeff. Great comp and perfect dof for my tastes. The light isn't too shabby either.

Excellent Capture Jeffrey... My only little nit is also the spots on the one leaf, but not an issue on a really great photo. GOOD JOB

Very nice, I like the V of the leaves with the out-of-focus V of the branch behind them.
Fall hasn't happned here yet, it has been too warm and no frost yet. The foliage is still green making up for a spring that was too cold and too wet.

The repeating "V" pattern is outstanding and makes sense out of the usual chaos of branches and leaves, but in addition the colors just sing! Your vision and execution are outstanding... worthy of a very large print hanging proudly.

Beautiful bright autumn colours in the foreground as well as in the background. The composition is great and the repetition of branch in the background helps a lot IMO. Evokes memories of chilly mornings when steam is already creating as you are breathing...

As stated befor me, excellent use of the V pattern in this. Nice light, good colors and a delightful comp, Jeff. Not much longer for us and fall will be here. It's just beginning to show and I'm hoping to get out this nextw eek.

Was away for a short break and missed this, Jeffrey. Many congrats on a beautiful image ! The colouring and composition are superb - the echoing branches in the distance a marvelous touch.
