November 2 2003 :
Covered

Whiteley Village, Surrey

I'be been trying for a good 'fallen leaves' shot for a few days now and today I seem to have succeeded. I actually witnessed this particular display at
Whiteley Village , a private estate, not for the rich or famous, but for less fortunate pensioners thanks to the generosity of its founding father.

In absolute awe! Would you mind if I use it as a sceensaver? I wont sell it or claim it for my own.

Wow! I love the colors and composition.

OK - I second everything that everyone already said. LOL What amazes me most about it, though, is the immensity I feel when I look at it. The tree is massive, and placing it on the right side of the frame - with those long branches reaching leftward - really emphasizes the amount of space this ancient inhabitant occupies in this corner of the woods. Amazing capture, Ray - very well done, indeed!

Thanks everyone for all your positive comments. I'm glad it seems to be popular with you all which was funny as the day started as a definite no-hoper with so much rain! Moral: don't give up - there's always a gem nearby but you just gotta spot it! ~~~Ray.

Beautiful! I can't believe the fallen leaves still have color. Great catch!

Yes, I'd say you have succeeded. This is a gorgeous Fall shot!
