46/365 - Last Color of the Year?

Last Color for the Year?

Colorful leaves are getting scarcer by the day. Each autumn-clad tree I find may be the last for the season. Fortunately, that also means that we're entering one of the best seasons for indoor color. Time to dig out the Christmas decorations, deck the halls, and crank up the Christmas carols!

Editing: Started with the RAW format. (It is useful for correcting exposure and such.)  Ended up with the usual treatment & a little Ortonizing.  (At this point, so much of the editing is "the usual" that maybe I won't bother with adding this section unless there's something special to say about it-- such as a new-to-me technique.)

12/365 - Autumn Leaf

Autumn Leaf

We don't get a whole lot of autumn color down here in coastal Alabama, but what we do get is appreciated.

This is the leaf of a "popcorn tree", one of those that actually get a little color.

Editing: Pretty much the same as usual... I think I used the Vibrance tool on this one.
