Yes, more fall leaves. Here in Okazaki we don’t have any huge places for seeing the leaves, but we do have a lot of small ones. I wanted to catch the ginkgo tree here. The ginkgo tree leaves turn this solid wonderfully bright yellow color. Combined with the blazing red of the Momiji (Japanese maple), you get some amazing color. This shot was taken towards sunset, as you can probably tell by the light.

  • So many times photo's online have there colors enhanced. I'm guessing that by your statement on the lighting that this is true to life. If it is, I'm very impressed. The reds coming out of that center tree are spectacular.

    Nice photo.

  • I actually toned down the color in this photo. I processed it as hdr and afterwords the colors were almost overwhelming, so I desaturated parts of it and cooled the entire thing down. As nice as this photo looks, it's no where near as impressive as the real scene was. These fall colors are amazing.
