[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This large maple tree was in peak bloom this week. Many of the other trees around were losing their leaves while this one held on. As you can see by the grass color there was little saturation ... which is very tempting with autumn colors.
Enjoy your day !

JULIE,

BEAUTIFUL COLORS. DIFFERENT POV, LOW, BUT WITH THE GRASSY HILL SHAPING THE VIEW.

WELL DONE,

WELLINGTON

Hello Juliet,

No wonder you wanted to capture this!
The maple tree is demonstrating an explosion of orange, red and yellow colour tones!
I think you were right to centralise this shot.
It would not have had the same effect off-centre.
Nice composition and complementary framing.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

very beautiful colors.. I really miss watching fall colors

Beautiful capture of this lovely tree showing autumn colors at its best, Julie!
The sharpness and POV are perfect and the DOF is very well managed. The green grass in the FG gives great contrast to this bright colored tree.

Well done, my friend.

best regards,
Paras

Hi Julie

Striking warm cold color contrasts between the orange foliage & the blue sky. Good sharpness & I like the optical illusion of the tree appearing to be submerged below the horizon line. Tfs!

Hi, Julie -
Another great autumn capture; I like the effect of the additional saturation which really brings out the flaming fall colors. The tree seems to be bursting out of the ground. Very warm, sunny feel. Well done.

Hi Julie,
This large maple tree is a real beauty in its blooming process!
Fabulous lighting adorning its golden foliage.
Sharpness is impeccable and composition is just fantastic.
Nice blue sky to contrast and the green base to compliment.
Good job!
Regards,

Francis Xavier

Merhaba dear Julie...
Sonbaharı bundan daha güzel anlatan bir kare olamaz, tebrikler...selamlar

Hi Julie,

Wonderful capture of the blazing colors of the maple tree. The low POV and hilltop make it look almost like a bush. I agree that the central placement is appropriate here because of the size of the tree. Very sharp, with beautiful colors. TFS

Warm regards,
Werner

Bonjour Julie,
l'arbre majestueux accroche sa belle parrure dans ce fond de ciel radieux.
Une image aux couleurs flamboyantes, un petit bonheur de pouvoir capturer ce moment avant les froidures. Merci.
Agréable journée.

Hi Julie,
