Got to go back in time as I did not shoot much in the past months. Let me propose you an image captured last fall during my week off.

This neighborhood was built in the fifties. Now the trees are mature and offer a great view to residents. The only disadvantage is the falling leaves (LOL!), Each home have loads of bags every year. One positive aspect , it is making great compost now, since they are not burned anymore ( it is prohibted to burn them in town )

Technically , Further a Workshop posted earlier , here I choose a
lower POV. It does create some distortion , but do not think it really matters here.

Cheers!
Robert

I will be back tomorrow night with critiques and comments.

Great POV here Robert... Nice sharp depth of field through the whole photo.. And the B&W is an unusual choice for the autumn leaves, but makes a nice change- something different.

Good street scene

yeah!! I really like this view Robert. Great low angle!
And again a great choice to convert this to B/W.

:-) cheers,
Anneke

Dear Robert, wonderful POV. Although the picture here is in b&w but still it manages to give the feel of autumn. The smell of fallen leaves can easily be felt!
Nice sharpness achieved!
Unusual but yet a Beautiful composition!

Wishing All The Best!
Cheers,
Shubhi:)

Robert
The POV with its FG leaves works for me. The B & W is an interesting choice considering the probable color of the leaves. The wide angle lens is effective here giving us a wide view of the neighborhood.

Hi Robert...I look at the photo information and am amazed at your details and tones...great shot.

Bonjour Robert.

J'aime beaucoup le point de vue et la composition avec ces feuilles en avant plan et la ligne des arbres. Le traitement N/B est super aussi.

Cordialement

Hi Robert

A very dramatic low POV composition that focuses on the shed leafs and thei "fate". I have been composting them too without any state suggestion as my place is hard to carry things to so I mainly rely on recycling literally everything.

Have a nice weekend and TFS

Hi Robert,
somehow, I find this image really attractive (and i must tell you that that is really something - as I am not usually drawn to B&W images).
Perhaps it's the POV, perhaps leaves.. whatever.
Nice one.

Best regards, Daniel
