Birch and Maple
by Nick Bristol
I came across this birch log and maple leaf while on a hike with my wife and another couple that are good friends. We were looking for a remote cabin in the Hiawatha National Forest of Upper MI. I just took my Canon G11 along because I wasn't really thinking about making any new images on that hike. Thought if I found something I wanted to photograph I would go back later with my gear. I enjoyed the look of this little scene so just thought I would at least capture it with my G11 and see how it came out. I was kind of pleased with it after looking at it later. The red maple leaf was here on the log just waiting for me, so no, I didn't have to put it there or even change anything. This was the comp I liked best out of just a couple of shots I made before moving on. Thanks for any thoughts.

This is a nice composite. The brilliant red is complemented by the green moss and contrast well with the log. Well done.
