Here in South Georgia, we don't always get a lot of fall color. While off this morning, I went looking for some fall colors, and found some! I have just downloaded these from the camera, and have done NO TWEAKING!!! They are straight out of the camera. I put up a few of my favorites. Let me know what you think. Please let me know what (if any) tweaking and adjusting will make them better.
Nice shots. A little tweaking would help. On the first the most important tweak would be focus. On the second, fourth and fifth I think they would all be improved by following the rule of thirds. To do this on the second you would need to back the tree a little farther into the photo and show more background. Also on the third I would have focused on the tree, not on the deck. But this depends on what your subject is, the deck or the tree. The color is very nice. Same with the fourth and fifth. The second is my favorite. Beautiful color, subject, and composition. I like that the back is colorful and blurred. However A wider DOF would have gotten both the leaf and the berries in focus. Perhaps some fill flash would help by decreasing the shadows. You can also do this with PSE and some other editing programs. A nice selection of fall color shots.
Oh, now I see you added three more. I'll let someone else critique those.

Several of them I took at different settings just to see the difference. In a couple of them, I thought they look a little washed-out, and the slower shutter speed ones look a little dark, so I took the ones in the middle!
