Yes I know another autumn leaf photo. As if there aren't enough on flickr at the moment!
Well after three days of rain the sun made a brief appearance this morning and lit up the cornus/ dogwood bush outside my window. The combination of colour and backlight was just too much to resist.

I dipped this leaf in water then layed it on the picnic table the water from it soaked into the table making the sunlight of late evening pop on it. The light areas at the point of the leaf is from the water that drenched into the table ..Made a great reflection of the sunlight..The water soaked in fast so had to take the shot as soon as the leaf was placed on the the table, I was thinking I must get this light of the water on the table
This one was harder than I thought it would be. It's Autumn here, and there are colourful leaves everywhere. I tried to take some shots outdoors with lots of colour and bokeh, but there was too much wind. I regretted not bringing a flash on my outing, but I suspect even with it, focusing would be difficult.
Anyway, I found a few nice big leaves that had fallen off some plane trees. They have some interesting textures and morphologies. I ended up making a light defusing box for this one - I quite like how much it lets me play with the shadows.
Oh, and the other thing I learned this week, is that the colours on my laptop monitor appear to be quite cool. I'll have to see if I can fix that - the first attempt at this looked great on my laptop, but when I loaded it on my other computer it was a hideous shade of yellowy orange because I had used the wrong WB. I'm still not sure that I have got it quite right, but it certainly looks better now (to my eye at least).
