Maple leaves

annnna8888

Hi all,
I've been digging through some old photos and found these. I took them in my garden in November 2003 and seeing them again reminded me of the exquisite fall colors that year. Our maple tree doesn't produce such reds and oranges every year!












Even my cat enjoyed rolling in the leaves.




All taken with my then camera, a 3MP Canon A70. Comments welcome!

Hello Ana.
Nice photos you posted.
I like the 2.ed shot very much because of the colours...
I noticed that the cat has something strange in his eyes...

the first too are a little bit too much for me. #4 is adorable, but you should consider cropping out the top part, above the cat, as it's not adding much.

#3 is beyond fantastic. i can hardly express how much i love it. amazing composition, lighting, and colors. it's a real winner!

I like the shot with the cat quite a bit. It is so rich in appearance. I can see the crop idea, but I personally like it as is. The background provides some nice depth.

Thanks, Antonio.
I don't think there's anything strange in my cat's eyes. It's just the color of his eyes and the sun shining on them.

Thanks for the comments! And I'm glad you like the third photo so much.

I tend to agree with you. I have a couple of cropped versions of that shot but somehow prefer this one.

Hey, thanks! I had no idea about that thread. Unfortunately, I have moved and my cat stayed behind, so I don't have many photos of him. :cry Just the one above and a few more.

The 3rd one would make an excellent jigsaw puzzle!! I love puzzles!
These are all beautiful! We don't see colors like that in Florida!!
Beautiful!!
