This is my another shot of the leaves that I put few days ago... this shows the curves, the line texture of the leaves, especially the silver color leaf created by the natural backlighting (sunlight). I need to do the exposure balancing as some leaves are dark & bright, therefore the yellow leaf is slightly exposed :> No PS touch-up. All comments and suggestions are most welcome.
Good experiment, Bobby, and you took the right conclusion....) I like the quality of this shot. Very strong image, and well composed. As far as the composition, I only find it a pity the top leaf is cut off by the edge of the photo. Zooming out, and cropping the image to a portrait "panorama" format would've been nice. Still a very good shot, and thanks for the explanation, it places the photo into "perspective".
Very strong colors, contrast, saturation, shape, composition. Very good. I just don't like the frame, but that's personal. Congratulations from Brazil. José Azevedo.
