[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken over the weekend. It looks like this was my "Last Chance" at capturing fall color in New England this year. The red berries along the bank of a stream caught my eye , so I went for it.

Hi Michael
The sharpness of the main subject is well executed and bringing the backdrop with such good DOF. With the purplish DOF, the red color of the cherry are alive.
Pretty simple image but a beautiful one.
Well done, Michael.

Nice composition and I really like the vibrant colors against the subdued background.

good color preview & composition is very nice.

i love the sharpness and the composition and the colors. some may be tempted to crop, but i like the background on the left and the details of the branches on the top right. nice job!

Hello Michael,
You went for it......and you got it!
Having the vertical line of orange leaves, unfocused in the background of this photo is the master-stroke which makes it all work. And it does, very well indeed.
