 Leaves from my apple tree. We are having an incredibly mild fall for this area and haven't had a killing frost yet so this leaf still has a lot of colour in it.

Rather like other commenters, I find the colours appealing, but also find the apparent motion-blur detracts from the impact I feel this could have had.

great color.

We don't get frosts very often in Southern California! I do miss the Pennsylvania fall color.

Beautiful color, very bright and vibrant. I like the brown leaves around it, as it showcases the reds.

I love the way that one side is so colourful and the other is subdued tones, work very well. The red leaf could do with being sharper at the edges. Overall gives a great feeling of Autumn

I think if this wasnt tripod mounted and no wind this might have hurt your sharpness. I see 1/15 @ 200ISO. You might want to bump up your ISO to increase your shutter speed. The image is a touch soft, but has wonderful coloring to it. The details of the leaf and the textures are good, but with added sharpness could be even better. I actually like the fact that you chose to off center the leaf and cut it off. It makes a better photo to me.

lovely colours! A little soft in focus maybe the crop/ overall a good first attempt.
