I used a couple of filters on the image when I first edited it, probably Adjust. The image is leaves I arranged on a Gelli print background. I used Topaz Texture Effects with the tree branches texture I downloaded from their Community and another texture in the plugin and a border in the program.
Thanks Mitch and Dennis. Dennis, I did lighten the blacks some with curves. I agree it's a bit dark but I decided not to tackle it since it was done with Texture Effects and not a separate layer.
You certainly did capture the glory of fall color! Great layered design of the interior leaves with those nice points, and good choice of textures. Adds lots of interesting lines but nothing overwhelming. I am fine with the darker edges since the interior reds are so strong.
