The Fallen

A little fall colour. A dull day with no grand vista so I had a bit of fun getting up-close and personal.

This is just beautiful Dean. This looks pretty grand to me, with wonderful color and a very nice comp.

Cool shot, Dean. I really like the bottom half, that would make for a phenomenal abstract.

Beautiful! I love how the leaves on the rock are so perfectly spaced, and how they clearly come from the tree above... really captures the essence of fall(ing).

A very lovely intimate autumn scene, Dean. I really like the leaves scattered about the moss covered boulder.

I like it. Looks wet with intense color. A scroll crop of about half the orange leaves at the top seems to strengthen the comp.

What a lovely mess you captured here! I'd love to study this in large print... beautiful work!

Love, love, love the vibrant colors and details in this! Those orange leaves contrast so well against that green moss, and the connection with the tree above is clearly apparent. I do like Tony's crop suggestion. Nice work!

I like the spread in the foreground, very appealing!

The high contrast seems to be working in the bottom half (certainly the centerpiece of the photo), but at the top if feels too strong to me, maybe pulling my attention to that area and then not offering the same pleasing view as the fallen leaves do.

Wow. I missed this one. Superb Dean. Love the effect of the leaves on the tree with the fallen leaves below!
