Araluen Autumn

Gallery: Man & NaturePosted May 17, 201188 views5 comments

Here, is southern hemisphere its Autumn time. Trees like Liquid Amber or Poplars are turning red and gold and they look really beautiful.

This has been taken just recently near Araluen National Park in Perth. I was waiting patiently for the overcast to come and it did with colours matching the ambience of the place.

To be honest this is my first time with such subjects and its editing hence I would very much appreciate any comments, critique with re to it. Anything that comes to your eyes that I might have missed.
The photo is in calibrated colour so it might not look as great on sRGB calibrated LCD.

I've posted in on Man & Nature as this photo has been taken on Araluen Gold Course.

Thanks for your time and any comments :)

Tom, I really like the warm and inviting colors projected here, but I feel about a 2% tilt to the left. Otherwise the foreground to forever is right on. Just me, but good job.

Thanks Rob. Appreciate your feedback especially coz flora seems to be the main subject in your NPN gallery. By tilt to the left do you mean moving FG of out the centre and create diagonal line between the trees and the FG?

Sweet scene and with the numerous elements well put together. My main criticism is that the foreground fronds touch the poplar reflections which look to be avoidable.

It's a very pleasant picture. I really like the front to back sharpness and the combination of leaf and ferns in the foreground. For me, that really puts me right there enjoying the scene.

Fantastic image Tom. Only nit is the fern touching the reflection. I love the red leaf in the foreground since it serves as a starting point for the rest of the image.
