Fall Flashback
I have so many fall images that I have yet to process and organize. Worked this one up, thought I would share it.

Subject: Fall Maple Leafs
Lens: Canon EF70-200 f/4L @ 200mm
Exposure: f/11, 1/6, ISO-100
Crop: Full Frame

I've heard great things about that 70-200 f4... It seem it has a pretty close minimum focus distance too. I miss those colors, and be thankful you were able to shoot a lot that color because some of us weren't.

What a great image. Sharp and vibrant... So glad you were able to capture it. Thank you for sharing.

Way to go Brad. The drop of water hanging from the one leaf shows a great reflection of more fall colors. Nice capture and it adds some color to the end of winter shots on the forum.

Great color and composition on this one Brad. I kinda wish the partial OOF leaf at the top center didn't block the leaf in focus, but moving it would probably have meant losing that big drop of water...

The color and sharpness on your subject are very good Brad. You did a nice job with the composition considering the difficulty of extracting a clean, uncluttered scene when shooting leaves on a tree. Thanks for the taste of fall!
