I managed to find the only dead leaf in south Georgia.
This shot is such a great demonstration that warm colors - red, yellow, orange - approach the viewer and that the cooler colors - green, blue - tend to recede from the viewer.
I love these very simple looking images that are so effective and a lot harder to create than most people think. Well done, Thomas!

Hey Path, Here is another simple shot that I thought you might enjoy. Still lookin' for leaves...
That is a perfect barn. I don't have those either. I took some photos this spring of nothing houses, they should not have been good, but they were.
Then again nothing beats red. My father used to wear red if he knew he was going to have his picture taken in an outdoor type setting.
So, Andy, how did you get those two different exposures together again. My book has me doing a lot of work, some of which I don't understand, but I can do it, just don't have it memorized. Is there some way you "paste" them easily together when you get one on top of the other?
Brown Floweaves..
I don't know what they are called for real, but I call them Floweaves because they look like they are half flower, half leaf. When the sun shines through them, the shadows of the overlapping leaves creates a secondary, darker, leaf pattern. Sorry of some of them have blurry spots. Some mist got on my lens from some fountains, and the detail on the LCD didn't pick up on it. I'm sure its digitally repairable, but I am not that good with editing programs just yet.
This image must break all the rules of composition and still succeeds nicely.
Very Nice Andy!!!
i was thinking about this shot - one reason i took it was i thought that the texture of the bark (rough, sharp, clearly defined) would contrast nicely with the soft fluffy colors of the oof tree leaves in the distance. maybe that's why the central tree doesn't ruin it?
A funny thing happened on the way to the mountains
Last weekend I took a little (200 mile) ride to the Blue Ridge to take some pictures of the fall foliage that is still in it's first stages around here in DC. Got there and the sun went behind the clouds pratically the whole time I was up where the best colors were. On the way home about 2 miles from my house I saw these, some of the best color to date. While I was taking this shot some one in a car stopped to take some pic's as well, had to tell them about how I went 200 miles to filnd color and wound up finding the best so close to home. HA HA!Still it was a nice ride...

Your result is great!
