Floating fall leaves

Gallery: FloraPosted November 15, 2011143 views9 comments

These leaves were slowly swirling around in the creek behind my house. I loved the contrast of colors and textures. The one leaf is under water with lots of bubbles on it. I had posted a similar photo with a different comp in the macro gallery. I think I might like this one better. Taken in natural late afternoon sunlight.

Canon Rebel T1i. 180mm macro lens. F/9 for 1/100 sec. ISO 400. Tripod mounted.

Carolyn:
The color is what draws my attention most, then the shape and topped by the bubbles. Very nicely seen and captured.

So well seen, Carolyn and beautifully captured ! There is a strong sense of layered depth with this lighting and a very attractive combination of colours and textures. A very fine image in my view.

Good eye Carolyn to have seen this, and very well captured.

This required three elements in my opinion. Vision, composition and timing Carolyn. You nailed all three superbly in my opinion. Just wonderful work.
