Leaves in sunset

Thanks Amber.

I was not sure if the background leaves made this photo better or worse. But I guess there is not enough contrast between the background leaves and the foreground leaves. So, yes, I think there is too much clutter in this photo.

Jamie,

Thanks for your advice. In actual fact I had to darken this photo and add contrast. I see what you mean about the colors being burnt out. It probably would not matter if the leaves were not the focal point of this shot. But, they are.

I wish I had taken this a stop lower to recover the highlights.
