Detroit Highlights & Shadows
Autumn Leaves IV (Homage to the EX)
Posted by Ralph Jones (Detroit, United States) on 4 November 2009 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.
I ran into the EX while taking this photo, I thought I would quote Charles Barkley and dedicate this to the EX.
After a tough loss reporters surrounded Barkley to ask him about the game, his quote was simple, "Why don't you make like a tree and leave?".

i'm loving the "red leaves on blue sky" set here, another great picture, this is my favorite so far due to the use of negative space, i love the big blue sky in the background. that cloud is also a bonus.

Gorgeous contrasts and strong colours make for another great Autumn image Ralph. I like the soft focus of the white cloud especially.

Beautiful capture here! A simple, yet effective composition that incorporates rich colors and warm sunlight on the leaves, which in turn cast their own shadows against other leaves below them.

Nice that it's a peaceful shot of some leaves rather than you setting them on fire, stomping on them, and then taking a picture. :)

A fine bright homage softly she leaves, as for Charles Barkley he has never been at a loss for words.
