The colours in the woods really come alive at this time of year don't they :smile:
I like your composition Maggie, with the trees and rock on either side, I was expecting to see a stag in the distance but things like that don't happen very often eh? :wink:
Well done.

Geoff.

an attractive scene Maggie with nice mixed colours and light. I'm not quite sure about the composition as the tree in the foreground perhaps obstructs the view slightly (though I imagine it would have been difficult to move :smile: )

It is a most attractive shot maggie, but personally I feel it needs a subject somewhere to give it more of a sense of purpose. That said I could look at views like this forever withourt getting bored.

The colours are lovely and it makes a superb autumnal composition. I like the grey rock at the side contrasting with the dark trunk of the tree in the foreground. Thew light gold leaves at the back makes it varied and full of interest :toast:

Tricky one, certainly some nice colours but with points made about the composition, suspect that the compression hasn't done it any favours.

Nice image, I would have been tempted to try and get the boulder on a thirds line (like the tree) by shifting up the hill a bit; that said, I have no idea what is out of the frame so that may have been impossible.

The palette is very nice and the contrast between rock and wood works well.
