Hi Kaushik. Nice warm colours reminds one of autumn. However, the OOF focus leaces in front are a bit of distraction

[John Cooper]

Hi Kaushik - I like the warm tones here in the leaf and lovely BG. The leaf placed diagonally and in sharp focus makes an attractive composition, but I find the remaining leaves distracting.

Hey Kaushik, I shoot leaves on downed oak limbs myself and find many interesting comps that most would walk right past. Go job taking the time to find this comp, and I like the DOF, light and BG. Well done.

Beautiful warm light and colour. I really like the artistic use of dof.
