Very, very nice, but that single bright orange leaf....

Another very nice. I love that single bright orange leaf.

Nice. I know I would have tempted an S-curve in pp to darken the shadows and highlight the bright parts, and that would probably be a wrong decision. That orange leaf is priceless

Thanks for the comments, appreciated!

The orange leaf is like Marmite it seems haha! I personally like it, sort of like the leaf could fall at any time!

So many colors, I like it

This is lovely.
It is also one of those that boggles my mind about learning. Usually, a lone leaf like this that takes my eye away from the main photo, usually gets panned by 'you' guys. ( no sarcasm, just learning better composition)

I know it's personal choice, but I feel like Rick58, that I am drawn to it instead of the lovely colors, lines...

Very pretty scene. Makes me feel like I've stepped into a scene from A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Beautiful, just love the colours and the slight foggy touch, Now people might have a lot of contrasting opinions on that single orange leaf, but I'd say it looks beautiful. It may distract you, but in a good way.
