Late Autumn

Late Autumn

This evening, I have a date with a rake. The downside of autumn is yard cleanup.

There must be a theme today. Yours is the fourth photo I have come across with leaves. Great shot. Love the mixture of color and texture.

HDR? Such incredible detail and color. tell me please!

Rob said...

Not an HDR image, just over the top processing for a gritty feel.

I use both Photoshop Lightroom and Elements 5.0. In Lightroom, I increase the Recovery, Fill Light, Contrast, Clarity, and Vibrance Sliders to +100%. I also use the Strong Contrast on the curves section and increase the blacks slider to 15 to 25%. Then I back off on the Saturation slider to the negative value; -75 in this photo.

I think a photo like this is a pretty good excuse not to rake at all.

Very nice. Autumn is an amazing time when you have a camera in your hand.

But the upside is the awesome Autumn photos you take! Or did someone already say that?

I just leave it (no pun intended) and hope the worms do the job. They normally do!
