The Last Hurrah!

The Last Hurrah!
The Last Hurrah!

----
This remarkable, large Japanese Maple was encountered during the photo scavenger hunt a week ago in Skippack, Pennsylvania.
----
It was magnificent to view, with its foliage in every stage of life--most already crisping up and curling, clinging precariously to their branches, waiting for a cold rain and wind to whisk them away for the coming Winter.
----
But it took a touch of Topaz Adjust Buzz to convey the majesty of the color and light in my photo.

  WOW! That certainly is a magnificent Japanese Maple specimen, Michelle! And you really brought out all its beautiful glory with your treatment! I love these trees - have two of them - each quite different. Alas, they are almost bare now - and I didn't even get to photograph them this year :(.
