My apologies for the long absence from NPN. Family commitments and other issues kept me away.

Here is an image I took during a recent trip to the Eastern Sierras to catch fall colors.

Let me know what you guys think of the comp and processing.

Please see the larger version

All comments and critiques most welcome!

Great blast of color!! I might back off the cyan a little in the greens, but that is a personal taste. Very nicely done.

Nice layering, Sairam. Glad to see you back. I particuarly like the subtle transitions from layer to layer.

Nice layers and gorgeous color. The light was certainly brilliant. I agree with Harley regarding the cyan.

Some gorgeous light Sairam,

The layering of light, color and textures makes this image work. This is such a nice capture of an intimate scene.

Thanks everyone. Somehow on my screen, I don't see any cyan on my display. I'll put up a repost soon.

Beautiful layers of color and the scene blends together very nicely Sairam. Really nice light in this also. Great job.
