Really cool shot. If it were mine I think I would shift the color of the leaves just slightly more from thegreen/yellow part of the spectrum to the yellow/orange part.

Thanks E.J., will give it a try. The leaves in the back were green, but I will see what I can do.

I like it. It has a nice dreamy Oriental feel to it.

Hi Stan, nice one! Processing wise, I would personally brighten it up just the tiniest bit and also up the clarity just the tiniest bit as well, perhaps +5 or +10. I know it's foggy as heck, but it's kind of got an HDR / orton kind of thing going on now that bugs me a bit. I'd also take just a bit off the top to eliminate the slightly brighter spot in the upper left.

Thanks Chris. I actually took this focusing on the tree trunk so the leaves would be "soft". I have numerous variations as we photographed this spot just off the road for quite some time.

Love this. The only nit I have is there is a small "bright" patch in the top left corner, it seems to drag my eye a touch - but not a biggie.
Nice work, Cheers
