Final Curtain 2

Nice arrangement of the leaves, and I like the green plants peeking through the reds. The cyan looks a little heavy in the greens, so you might consider pulling it back somewhat. I like the various textures and the soft light.

Scott: Looks great to me. I like the full spectrum of colors especially. All the disparate textures in the large version are real treats. Most excellent.>=))>

Scott, This is very nice! You really came up with a great group of leaves with wonderful colors, shapes and textures. I like this a lot. Excellent work with this composition and the large version looks fantastic!

These maple leaves are certainly prettier than the ones I'm finding locally. There is just enough order in this composition to not look too busy. I think it might be interesting to reverse the color emphasis here: to desaturate the greens and saturate the warm tones. I feel that the cyan greens are dominating the best part of the image, which are the maple leaves. This has a nice tapestry look to it.

Beautiful, intimate scene. The arrangement of elements are well-balanced and a lovely mix of colors. I like the saturated rendering as-is - processing looks good to me.

This is a sweet arrangement of fallen autumn leaves, Scott. The lighting is gorgeous as is the color palette. My only suggestions are the already mentioned slight cyan cast and cloning out the green leaf in the LRC; both easy fixes. I am going to have to look down more often and hopefully I will find something this nice.

Very nice leafscape. I am finding the saturation quite a bit heavy for my tastes, but that is very much a personal preference. Nice arrangement. Mother nature gets the goal, Scott gets the assist. 

The mix of colors and live plus fallen leaves looks great, Scott.  I like how those orange leaves angle up from the bottom and then mingle with the blue/green leaves of the vine.  Well seen.

Nice color and arrangement in the leaves.  The composition keeps my eyes moving throughout the frame.  Nicely done!

Scott,

Wonderful collection of colors.  Certainly there is room for color/saturation adjustments - but only because of subjective and personal taste.  We all see things a tad differently, and I'm liking what I see.  The only adjustment I would make is reducing the sat in the lone green leaf. Other than that, perhaps a slight burn of the LRC area.  BTW, never would have guess you assisted mother nature... all looks quite natural. ;-)

Oh, and you have numerous crop options too.  I find these difficult in that regard because I'm not sure if it's the broader view that I like, or a tighter crop within the scene.  I'll be posting an example of this soon.

Very nice colors shapes and textures in this image.  Certainly something we don't see in the West Coast.  Nicely seen.
