Such is New England weather: on Monday, we had a foot of snow; on Tuesday and Wednesday, temps were in the single digits and we were loading up the woodstove; today, we were hiking in shirt sleeves. No signs of green yet on the Sleeping Giant, where we skidded through patches of snow and jumped across rivulets of meltwater...but here and there were beech trees with last year's paper leaves still clinging to the branches. They were the only hint of color in a late winter landscape. The Photocopy filter outlined the veins and lit up the leaf.

Are you sure you are not from Nebraska - that sounds like our typical week LOL! Can't believe you are still finding fall colors - beautiful leaf!
ReplyDeletePretty and delicate - amazing that it's survived a winter of cold, snow and winds. Nice photo and interesting to see how the processsing changes it.
ReplyDeleteI do like the processing. Beautiful color.
ReplyDeleteLovely effect and wow, your photo has so much detail!
ReplyDeleteThe color and texture are great, I like the effect the filter gives a lot.
ReplyDeleteNice color and composition. I like the contrast of the leave against the bark. Nice.
ReplyDeleteI love the detail, the lighting, and composition of your leaf in the top image!
ReplyDeleteIt seems to have energy.
It is a beautiful photo, and as usual, your postprocessing just adds to it. Nicely done, Bobbie!
ReplyDeletevery nicely done and the filter does bring it to life.
ReplyDeleteI love the brown leaves of winter. Though I'm looking for signs of green myself. :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are so beautiful. Love the delicacy of all the details you've captured in the leaves.
ReplyDeleteLovely!
