Vivid maples

by Albert Darmo

Gallery: FloraPosted October 12, 2009160 views14 comments
Nikon D300, Sigma macro 150. F/4.5, 1/10sec, ISO 200.

It was very late evening, the sun had set. There was this warm glow for my light and I had to shoot almost wide open. Comments appreciated.

Beautiful colors Albert.
Simple & effective comp. I like the greens right that haven't quite turned yet, set against the reds & golds above and left..
Good that one can see the trees trunk in there too :wink:
Well done :toast:

Marvelous colors, Albert! I also really like the dark trunks giving such nice structure to the comp. Beautiful,

Always nice when shooting the leaves changing colors. Nice, effective and simple. I'd wish for more detail but as you stated, not to be. Nicely done.

Albert, In this case, I think shooting wide open enhanced the scene by blurring the BG. The placement of the green and yellow leaves against the oranges is a magical touch.

Wonderful, wonderful colour, Albert ! Love the meeting of the two groups of trees and the rhythms of the branches.
