Autumn Leaf


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Autumn Leaf
Autumn Leaf

NIKKOR 18–55mm at 44mm, f/22, 1.6s, ISO 100.

Having found this colorful leaf on my way to work, the only suitable background seemed to be the bark of a close-by tree. I glued the leaf to the bark using chewing gum and shot several frames. To give the background a cleaner look I "flattened" the bark with the adaptive wide angle filter in Photoshop.

Marcus...that leaf is perfect and the color really pops against the grey bark!
