Found these leaves still hanging on to the bitter end this Autumn. I used Picassa's manip package by firstly tinting the whole photo orange, then using focal B&W, then I used a tint to give the sky some warmth. I used similar technique for my Blackbird Silhouette. Hope you like.

I love your pun title and your picture.

"The Last To Leave" strikes me as an abstract Halloween Witch, malevolently flying across the face of an orange full moon. Her broom holding her in place as she scans the lands for her evil deeds. Very interesting post, Q-Ann.

Excellent manip! The silo'd image and colors you chose work beautifully together. Beautiful job with this image.

I like it. It looks like the sun behind the leaves. Manips are a lot of fun to make, I think, Very nice work, Ann.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

Another beautiful capture! It would appear your post work skills knows no bounds, and I'm lovin it! I especially like that orange glow and tree's limbs going in all different directions. Lovely presentation, Ann! :)
