I'm trying to convey a sense of the onset of winter, loneliness and vulnerability. I can feel it but I'm not sure my photo shows it! Perhaps the day was too bright to be doleful?


Hi Malky, I just noticed your golden leaf is downloadable. Couldn't resist desaturating the color to make it look more, well, dead, lonely, vulnerable and ready to return to the earth. It's not as pretty this way. I left the stem, felt it needed to be there somehow. No other changes. Posting just for your opinion to see if you feel it conveys your intended message any better this way.

This is a great example of what is making this new UHH section such a terrific opportunity for learning. Two utterly different messages from the same image. And the stem and little twig still add a neat interest.

I want to be able to see the branch that the leaf is connected to. I feel it is too dark.
The other one below - superfluous, distracting.
