Really WOW! Not tricks with photoshop?

Nice Chuck, that's what our front yard looks like right now. Bright red!

Jilly said...

This needs to come with a health warning - wear sunglasses! Chuck, this has to be one of the best fall leaves photos I've ever seen. Superb! And I thought it only happened in New England.

I say WOW, too. I would love a scarf like this.

Jim K said...

Beautiful shot, I dont think we get the colors down here like that. Maybe we dont have enough Maple trees.

Maarten, no tricks except by Mother nature. A bit of sunshine help. Image was done with Velvia film.

Nate, you're a lucky guy, then, except when it comes to raking -:)

Jim & Jilly, New England is famous for their colors, but most other parts of the country get their share as well. The color of leaves depends on the kind of trees to a very great extent.

Bibi, that scarf might be a bit stiff when it dried -:))

It is beautiful around here Chuck. It's not hard to find anything to photograph lately. Nice shot.

I saw trees just like those yesterday and had to turn around to snap a few clicks! Haven't posted them yet...but I will soon!! Gorgesou!

Great photo, love the colours. I have a real problem with this kind of photo, which leaves on which tree.... then I do not get a picture at all.

The master at work! One of your amazing art works, Chuck. Thank you for sharing its richness with us. Flickr has a Velvia curve in its editor now, but as you know, "ain't nothing like the real thing, baby, oo o o, ain't nothing like the real thing." There is no way to get this except someone who has the eye and the skill it takes to do this on film. Big kudos on this big day brightener!
