 Went looking for a nicely colored leaf, hung it from a tree and took the picture with the woods in the background. The wind helped make for a more natural leaf-in-the-air position ;-)

PP - cropped, levels, increased hue and saturation, increased it again on yellow/orange, dodged leaf, cloned out string and dust spots, shifted color balance towards orange, resized, sharpened, added border.

the golden tones compliment the red nicely. Wonderful light and bokeh.

It might have worked for me if the leaf was floating down but isn't as interesting this way. Nice color.
