Oh wow.. I love the colors and the definition of each leaf...
Did you take an actual photograph or did you make this on the computer? Its so clear.
It makes me want to cry..

actual photograph... if you want to know the logistics of it, it was a semi-dark picture of a tree w/ orange leaves. i added a channel mixer, mixed greens and blues to grey, intensified reds, and then added a layer on Luminosity on top to add the sky back in. no manipulation beyond those color manips, which is possible in a darkroom.

and thank you, i absolutely love this picture as well.

Kickass shot, although there seems to be some evidence of photoshopping around each leaf that needs smoothing out. Nice sig, by the way (although it could do with less blurriness and more brush-stroke-ness.)

Cool job, the red looks really striking against the white background. :w00t:

*cheers*
the vivid seperation between leaf and sky was actually intentional- i felt it added a depth and a vivid contrast to the image. and thanks about the sig, i'll see about changing the blurry factor, possibly. i think from now on, i'm removing all titles from pieces as well, just leaving either hte copyright text or the sig.
