Default Looking For Fall

Unfortunately fall has been extremely hard to find... I believe it has something to do with living in Texas :] We seem to only have Winter and Summer.. (mostly Summer).
This is a picture i set up... I gathered every leaf i could find in our yard ha.. thanks for checking it out!

I really like the contrast between the verticals of the table and the horizontals of the logs. The logs also make a nice frame for the shot.
Having lived in Pennsylvania my whole life, it is funny to think that what makes up that heart is the total leaf fall. Last weekend, we were carting the leaves off by the truckload. Thanks for sharing!

Very creative composition, Starling. I like the selective coloring and the textures of the boards and logs.

Very creative. I think it turned out great. The composition and selective color work well together.

I really like this with the different textures and the coloured leaves on the grey background.

Ther contrast works well in this picture by leaving the leaf in color and the wooden bars in B&W.
