POTW for 3rd May, 2011…

As we move through autumn, Mother Nature is at its best in my opinion, providing great leaf colours and filtered light especially in the hills and mountains around us.
So this is the very reason why I have selected the following image from colin_12, together with great use of depth of field.

Congratulation Colin :)

You organised this meet for the day BEFORE I got back, so no kudos from me

Still great picture

Nice choice Fozzie and nice photo Colin. Autumn colours are always spectacular and your composition of a horizontally inclined branch as the subject, is a tad different. Very nice.
