Dartmoor Gold

God I hate Autumn, I have just wasted four days of my life wandering

forests with absolutely nothing to show for it except this shot. The

leaves are backlit with evening sunshine, the color was literally off

the scale. Anyway hope you like it.

Heh David. I'd wander for eight days to capture an image as nice as this one. Beautiful composition. Regards-Ross

Hello David at least you got this one (lol), the late light really have made the colors pop very nice .

Wonderful colors and composition. Nicely done. Dan

Nice composition without clutter. Well done, sir! I like the very dark tree bark. Yeah- nice color too. Did you use any sharpening?

Absolutely magnificent

I really do not like Autumn too. But this photo is great. What type of lens did you use for this shot?

It was the Canon 24-105, I have a really good version with lots of colour and contrast, dont point it at anything linear though!

I wouldn't mind wasting my life if I could get shots like these :-).

I usually do not like human elements in a landscape, but you've managed to integrate that wall beatifully. Also love the velvety texture on the wall. Nicely done.

As someone that lives in a place where autumn seldom looks any different than spring or summer, I admire pictures like this. So I was intrigued by your opening statement, I would imagine that scenes like this one would be more common than they are....Not that being a common scene makes it easier to photograph, there is a lot of autumn pictures that are really boring, even for someone that lives in the tropics.

Beautiful indeed!
