Albert,
Just beautiful. Fantastic foliage captured under nice soft light. In my opinion, nothing like maple trees turning color in the north eastern hardwood forests!

Hi Albert, Another wonderful autumn scene. Looking at the beautiful colors of maples in a northwoods forest just has to make one feel good. Cheers, Nick.

Flat out gorgeous autumn color, Albert. The soft flat light in this scene is perfect for showcasing this beautiful maple in all it's regal fall foliage. I also think this would work with a crop from the bottom so just the foliage of that tree fills the frame from edge to edge. I can see why you never tire of the beauty that surrounds you.

Exquisite autumn image, Albert. The centered tree of your composition gives this the feel of a geyser of autumn color bursting up from the ground. Love it. The larger 'detail' image is a joy to behold.

That's an impressive amount of colored leaves. Looks like fireworks!

Man, you are living the life with all those trees around you! I think I might experiment with cropping the bottom part with all the other trees in the background, and create a bit more abstract photo. But this is very nice as is as well!

What an amazing blast of color here, Albert. I like your emphasis on the leaves and tree's shape, with just enough trunks along the bottom to create context.

Albert,
Gorgeous color and intimate, autumn scene. I like that you've really filled up the frame. I suppose as another has suggested just filling it with the leaves and eliminating the bottom could work; on the flip side, having just a bit more on the bottom could work too. For me, as presented the bottom is right on the line for wanting more, or none at all. But in the end, I'd say you should be very happy with this one.
I do think like your last image you could brighten the leaves a little bit. but again, a personal choice.
A beauty.
Lon
