"Sunny Leaf"

No manip, works for you? Taken this morning on a crisp, sunny

autumn morning. Would like to hear your feedback, thanks. ^_^

Real nice composition on this Wilson.

Nice, very nice picture ! 7/7

You always have a way of perfect execution. Kudos. 7/7

Very nice composition, beautiful light. Pnina

Its a really nice photo! The colours and the sharpness of the photo are very impressive!

7/7

wonderful color contrast and composition..

Again, this is a little different from what I would expect. Having said that, the execution and content is spot on.

Well done Wilson.

Looks like you and Regina Chayer where spying the same leaf! LOL. I love the DOF, color and the composition. It looks like the sun is behind the leaf, but then the sun on the foreground leaves is from behind you. How'd you give the leaf the nice glow? Nice selective effect of the glow.

simple and very nice image!!!!!!!

great color, composition & light. so simple & yet so beautiful capture.

Works for me.

Yes - works for me! I was actually expecting an image of some soccer players ... but this one is just fine, too! :-) Great use of backlighting without the resulting annoying shadows.

Lovely, must be a cloudy day to be able to capture it all on EV range.

Shall I give a rare A7, I think I just might, but I do have a soft spot for this kind of image. An O5, though, that's fair enough. Love the curve of the twig, concentrating on the single leaf, and the tones...mmm... that is an overcast sky, isn't it?, A classic, Canadian, image. Ahem... could never do this in the U.S., definitely not... impossible...

This is unusual for a Fall leaf shot - I like it! This also offers up possibilities of different crops, too, that would work equally as well. Nice composition!

Like it! You used very well the dynamic range of your camera. My suggestion is to use a slightly bigger DOF to get those leafs on the right in focus. Excellent work as usual. Cheers!

Nice composition!

DOF looks perfect to me...why do people feel everything needs to be in focus? I love the halo light....

Agreeing with Linda's comment above. This is as near perfect as I have seen.

 

I Love Fall!

Really, really nice!

Simplicity is a beauty sometimes. Here is a proof. Weldone!

Frankly, I just wanted to do one "non-manipulated" to help this fellow out . Darn it, this was from a "digital camera," so I guess it doesn't really count. ^_^

 

BTW, Stephen, Alec, not a single cloud was in sight, pretty much a full blast, sunny day, (had to hide the sun behind the leaf, almost took my right eye out!) We've been getting an unseasonably beautiful weather this past week and a half or so. Ivo, I intentionally choose f5.6 after checking through DOF-preview because anything smaller than that will make the background leaves all too sharp. Cheers. ^_^

a very beautiful composition Wilson
