tight collection of color
The first is a shot of various leaves off of the same tree in my front yard......It is in all stages it seems.....
 We went to "Ashland", the home of Henry Clay a few miles from home on a leaf hunting expedition with the younger girls.....They just raced from one colorful tree to the next. This is a shot of them taking off for the next promising tree.  "Ashland's" gardens are about gone but some roses are still hanging in there despite the latest frost  Another rose shot with some darkening done to generate this particular look.....the trick is to slightly over expose the subject against a dark background like a hedge or a bush and then darken the whole shot in pp.....The overexposed rose becomes a bit underexposed perhaps and the background goes to black.....I have done several this way.

Jennie, I had suspected that you might like the leaves shot. I suppose your leaves stay green all year around.....the color is great, the cold not so great....it all comes with a price....lots of color and then sticks for 4-5 months.
