I was sorting through my fall pics, of which there are still many from this year, and decided that I had to upload this last beauty. Everything came together so well that day that this is actually my DNG with a bit of sharpening and no color adjustment. The sun took care of all that for me. Imagine my surprise!! All I had to do was make sure I showed up on time, and I can assure you that my attire was nowhere near as fancy :)

Yes, did you take this from the window of a building, or were you in another tree? He He. Very nice colors. Do I see a county courthouse through the tree?

Terrific colours, lighting and shadows on this beautiful composition PJ. I can feel the sun, the air, hear that water. If you have more autumnal shots, I would like to see them, as you've dazzled us with this series. :)

My imagination would go crazy with all those colored leaves as my palette. I would first paint Koi's in a pond on a 1/4 acre of cut grass with my family helping (Quality time) then take a picture or 2. then my youngest son(monoDshark) is going to want to do a Dragon. I better stop, this is not about me, sorry. Also love the river in the background. that's always a plus for me to see that. You did a great job PJ and I'm glad you made it on time. Thanks!!

Very pretty PJ! And are my eyes decieving me or do I see a stream peeking through in the background? Along with the pieces of beautiful blue sky it makes a nice scene! C):-)

Oh, great show! And you caught a glimpse of the river in the background too. The perspective is neat, from up above like you climbed a neighboring tree to get this shot.

Beautiful PJ. I have been out trying to take some autumn trees today and somehow my camera switched from DNG to JPEG. You make it look so easy and I'm realising it's really not - especially with the natural colours and shapes you've captured here.
