This is a rework of the image I uploaded last night. There was a spot in the background that I had missed in photoshop that I went in and changed. Orange is Acer saccharum, red is Acer rubrum, and green is Acer saccharinum. Hope you like!

Greg - this is a great comparative image. The colors emphasize the differences. How about trying to gather leaves that are not partly dried out - even pick them off the trees (if you can reach). Then try this image with fresh unwrinkled specimens. Just a thought. This one is splendid as is - hope you don't misunderstand! a 10 and in my favs as well as my downloads. ~ Jan

I'd recommend making the leaves take up less of the image.

Perfect image!
The black background and vivid acer leaves are complementary.

Crisp image. Its good to see wrinkled leaves in the spotlight once in a while. These leaves capture fall colours perfectly. The black background adds a smart contemporary quality.

There is a japaneese word that means something is beautiful because of it's flaws, and I think the leaves in this compsition are a testiment to that. I think the word is WABI, the image is fantastic.
