Nice! Great colors, nicely lit against the dark backgrounds, and graceful looking
Thank you! The lighting was fun to play around with. It was late in the day, a bit hazy, but bright enough that the yellow and gold on the leaves glowed a little since they were backlit by the setting sun. Thanks for the comment … 🙂
Lovely sharp autumn colors.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the compliment!
Lovely colors and great to see the touch of autumn in the beautiful Grant Park Neighborhood —- still 80’s here on the coast where I now live, so you’ve given me the missing season that is simply skipped over here. Perfect eye for lighting and subject … thank you!
Thanks! Definitely a touch of autumn, though the temps are still mostly pretty high. Yellows and oranges started to turn up in the ‘hood and in the park … will be taking more and making more blog posts soon … so many leaves! so little time! 🙂
Exquisite! Love the light through the leaves.
Thank you! I love experimenting with the late afternoon backlighting this time of year … one of my favorite things!
🙂
