The autumnal colours are starting to fade now but it's been a pretty good year for them up here in Yorkshire.

Very nice and the focus is spot on! However I find the sky just spoils it being so bland and tends to overpower the background colours. I would have used a ND grad filter to hold it a bit. Nice one though!

Thanks for your kind and very pertinent comment Roger, perhaps I can explain. I was using my little Canon Ixus at the time, not a camera that can easily be fitted with a filter holder I’m afraid but even so, I stopped using grad filters a long time ago unless there is a compelling need to do so. I find them a bit of a ‘blunt instrument’ in many cases, especially when the horizon is cluttered with trees, buildings and the like and of course, it’s a one-way trip! When I took this shot the sky was a bright but uniform white, hence the lack of any distinct shadows. I considered dropping a new sky in but to be honest I couldn't decide on a suitable one so I left it with just the merest hint of blue.

Still some lovely colours in the trees, contrasting nicely with the evergreens either side of the composition.
And OK about the sky, still a nice shot though.
Autumn up here above the 54th parallel seems to have been patchy and spasmodic, hope for something more consistent next year.

Some lovely colours still to be seen but not for much longer I fear, a tricky sky to replace I would think with all the tree branches on the horizon, but I find it alright as it is, just natural for this time of year.
Very good detail and clarity, well done.

Attractive as though the colours are, I'm struggling to find a focal point here to rest my eyes. The bland sky does not help this, either. Sorry, Keith; I wish I could be more positive.
