Challenge: Trees IV (Minimal Editing I)
Camera: Pentax K-5
Lens: Pentax FA 77mm f/1.8 Limited AF
Date: Oct 11, 2012
Aperture: f/2.8
ISO: 160
Shutter: 1/400
Date Uploaded: Oct 11, 2012

 Used the K5's "toy camera" filter. The filter was applied before shooting. It added a vignette and a small amount of blur around the edges.

We need more of these minimal challenges instead of the heavily PS'd, 100 layer, "expert" ones. You really have to think about your composition and know how to manipulate your gear. Which is what photography is about, right?

I love this one. I wish I had taken it. The point where you chose to place your focus is clever. Such a beautiful shot!

Wow, that is some explosion of color on the trees. It is the color that draws the eye in and holds the attention. I wonder how much of an impact it would make visually if you had pulled back just a little more to show the entirety of the tree trunks. That said, the only other suggestion/critique I have is that I wish that the blur of the tree branch in the upper right was either sharper in focus or not there when you composed the shot in frame for it detracts a little from the beauty of the rustling leaves.
