While photographing the Tomhannock Reservoir leaves were falling and the one seen above landed on the hood of my car with the reflection of the foliage underneath.. I captured the photo with the Fuji X100s.

Three Maple Leaves
Another image of the vibrant reds of late October. I arranged the above maple leaves on a tree stump in the back yard to capture their color and texture. Photographed with the Canon 7D Mark II and Canon EF 135MM F/2L lens handheld in mid-afternoon sunlight.
Have a great day!
Orange Maple
The Maple tree in my front yard is a monochrome orange each year. Above, the tree is lit by late October light in the mid-afternoon. Photographed with the Canon 7D Mark II and Canon EF 135MM F/2L lens.
Have a great day!
Red Maple
Bright greens give way to radiant reds as October came to an end. Above a Red Maple tree in my back yard is captured with the Canon 7D Mark II and a Canon EF 135MM F/2L lens.

Autumn colors - a single maple leaf
Autumn in upstate New York this year seemed to be off to a slow start in mid-October. The colors were scattered and muted. However as October progressed, vibrant reds, yellows, and oranges emerged. I came across the above maple leaf in the yard and thought the yellow contrasted well with the red to define the leaf structure. I also found several other specimens and I positioned them on an old tree stump in late afternoon light for photographing.
Using the Canon 7D Mark II and the EF 135 F/2.0L lens, I took the above image of a single maple leaf.
More to come...
Have a great day!
Texture & Contrast
Photographed in March when there was still snow on the ground, these leaves were soaking up the sun's warmth and melting into the surrounding snow.
Photographed handheld with a Canon 7D Mark II and a Canon EF 100-400mm F/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens. Post-processed in Adobe Lightroom.
Have a great day!
