The colours here are really nice Dan - quite psychedelic actually
Nicely framed - a bit of a different image than we usually see and I like it, refreshing.

Hi Dan, gorgeous the splash of different colors, the branches of the trees in central and right part form the leading line. I like particularly the clusters of flowers of various colors.

[Rachel Hollander]

Hi Dan - I too really like all the color. I'm curious as to why the 2 second exposure and am presuming you used a tripod. As Morkel said, something a bit different.

TFS,
Rachel

Rachel, yes on the tripod, 2 sec.. because it was a dark rainy Oregon day. (This was taken last fall at peak color
at the Portland Japanese Garden).
I also had a CP filter on, forgot to mention that also.
The rain and darkness actually makes the maple colors more vibrant.

Very nice work here Dan. I love the color and the intimacy of this scene.

[Don Lacy]

HI Dan, Scenes full of chaos are not supposed to work thats why I really like this the color elements fall into place nicely to settle the eye, well done.
