p.1 #1 · A lot of leaves!


A few shots from a lunch hour walk in Cuyahoga Valley NP in Ohio. It's the peak time of fall here in Ohio. C&C are very welcome!

I like all three of these. Great color and fine detail in all of them. The contrast between the rock and the leaves is quite beautiful. Nice work!

The first one is splendid...the leaf-covered smooth surface, the boulders, and the trees (the source) are beautifully composed. The only thing that could make it better is if the most foreground leaves are more perfect/beautiful.

How long did it take you to put the leaves perfectly in place.

These are awesome shots!

Very nice.
The patterns, colors & contrast are wonderful.
The variation in colors in the leaves is quite a treat.
Thanks for posting

All are great composition. I like the #2 for its simplicity!

Great work!

You got good eyes for details, buddy. Now I notice that too. Really wish I could stand in the middle of water for this shot.

For me it's #2. The image is simple, but yet my eye is drawn to the middle and down, just like the leaves themselves. Very nicely done!

Thank you all very much for the kind words and helpful advice. I usually don't trust myself in landscape shooting because I rarely do it (I shoot portrait like 1,000 times more than landscape ). Now you guys restored part of my confidence. I will keep shooting in this beautiful season.

Cheers,

Thanks, Andy. I wish I had more good pictures of this place. But the lunch hour was too short.

I will head to a national forest in PA next week which is supposed to have a much more splendid view. I will try to bring back more good stuff from there.

great color and foliage. how i'm beginning to miss the colorful fall back home in cincinnati. it's quite a change being out here in seattle where everything is green... aside for the ocassional deciduous tree. for some reason, these all seem to be a bit on the darker side, at least for me.

Photo #3 is really pretty to me! I like the sense of depth that I get from looking at the leaves on the water. You did a nice job on all of these!!!

The first is really spectacular, awesome depth and color, and that rock provides a strong anchor.

Another vote for the first one. Awesome image. The 'carpet' of leaves is stunning.
