Birch (white bark), Maples (red leaves) & Poplar (yellow leaves)


I'm sure the colors are natural, but they are SO vivid, they look overcooked. If this were my photograph, I would tone it down just a tad. But each photographer gets to do his own thing, and pleasing yourself, I feel, is what is important.

I'm thinking this is what is meant by the term "intimate landscape." So much to see in such a limited space.

I vote for #9. I like the play of light and shadow.

. . .Do you think this would potentially be more effective if I cloned out the branches and just kept the pine trees, river and sky? Are the birch branches distracting or do they support the feel I was trying to get?


I think you are absolutely right that entirely cloning out the birch branches would only leave you with "just another vanilla tree / water / sky landscape." But cloning out the top of the birch is important as has been noted. However, I think your "haircut" was a bit severe. I would suggest just cloning the upper tips of the feathery branches on the right (to leave some "headroom" there) and also the main branch but only to just below the tiny branch that goes off to the left. This puts some of the birch into the sky at the top but still gives it a little breathing space. I'm all for including the environment of a scene around the "hero" of the shot, and for that the birch branches are important.

On their first date, Grandpa took Grandma to the Kentucky Underground "Night Club." This faded photograph was found in Grandma's scrapbook after her death.

My second go at it: this time very bright and sharp and framed like something that might hang on the wall of a child's room.
