Fall colors

This photo has not been processed or cropped. Just wanted your opinions on the photo as is.

It may look better once processed but I for one am not a fan of these blurred photo's. I probably have spent too much time trying to prevent it.

Thanks for your honest opinion. Appreciate it.

Ah, see, I like the blur!

I agree that it probably needs something - contrast, a bit of exposure correction? And you can play with different crops, though it kind of works as is. All the "V" shapes work nicely, I think.

Nice mood shot.

I like it, kind of different. I think I would like it a little brighter

I like it. The tree and branches need to stand out, though.
I would argue that it has been processed, but that's for another thread.

Glad you like it and thank you for the kind words. I will have to play with the contrast and exposure and see what I come up with.

That's what I thought too something a little different. Going to see how it looks brighter. Thanks for your thoughts and kind words.

I will have to experiment with the tree and branches and see how it comes out. I'm glad you like it. As far as I know and remember it was not processed

. Thanks for your comment.

Ah, but it's a jpeg - the camera or your conversion software processed it

Ah yes I forgot to mention it was a JPEG. So really the camera processed it, not me. ;-)

hey I actually love this!

definitely you should edit! but not much

maybe think about cloning out that bit of the green branch on the left and tone down that other green branch in the middle...

I'm so glad you like it. I will try to tone down the green branch and cloning out the other one. Thank you for your kind words.
