One day I was out shooting pictures at the local park and while Dakota was running around I decided to photograph some of the leaf fall that had happened overnight after a big storm. When I got the picture home – although I liked the composition – the image itself lacked punch.
It had been an overcast day and the lighting was muted and soft – the leaves therefore lacked vibrancy and I almost threw the image away. But instead, I had a play in Photoshop and this is the result. Vibrant? Certainly – but it makes a great artistic print.

I like autumn and this photo, although the effect is too much for me,I prefer natural photos
I can appreciate that – it was meant to be a bit of digital art – as you can see all my other pictures are natural – just trying it out for a change.
