Spring tree

I photographed this tree with new red leaves while in India during March. Used Topaz, Buz Sim.

This has a very nice palette of colors. It's also well-composed. I like the strong diagonals of the branch at the top and the the curves of the smaller one pointing up toward it. Great use of Simplify. Lots of extra points for that.

Hi Nancy, very nicely done. Love the colors and the buz-sim effect on the leaves.

Hi, Nancy. This has an oriental feel to me which I like. I really like the colors and the Topaz effect and the composition. Nice work:S3:

Ditto! Very nice composition, wonderful colors and just the right amount of Simplify!

Lovely image and compsition..love the color...TFS

I think you chose just the right filter for this image. Just lovely. I've been noticing how the spring colors are similar to the fall colors in the trees.

Nicely captured, nicely processed...wonderful composition. That said, it would also make a very nice pano cropping from the bottom to just below the start of the large trunk...it's such a dynamic image that you have a lot of options for working it! Strong compositional lines that draw your eye through the photograph; great balance of warmth against the green background...the colors are splendid, and the simplify filter works well with the image...great job!

Nancy, Beautiful filtering and comp. The colors really pop. I like the way the top branch frames the scene. Nicely done.

Nancy,

Greetings. Beautiful! Perfect with BuzSim (maybe my favorite filter). Good Show!

Cheers,

Thank you so much everyone! I really like using the Buz Sim effect but have wondered, just what does it stand for??

Nice rendition. Love the warm color. I just want to crawl right into the scene.http://www.birdphotographers.net/forums/clear.gif
