Rk, this is a really cool shot.
The dilapidated football and the DOF, really make this shot, not to mention all those wonderful autumnal colours :).

Thanks all.
CJ - Lately I have been posting some lazy shots in eligible...its just a note to myself.
Rod - I really wanted to get the fall colors into the topic...showhow.
Paul - took up your suggestion...cropped the picture down and I like the revised version better...thanks.

Yes, good but for me there's too much of the out of focus leaves. I think it would gain by loosing an inch or two from the top.

Hehe now you have the leaves on topic:-) Well done RK.

This is great RK! the colors and DOF are awesome! And thanks for reminding me of a few old shots I'd taken that work for the exhibition gallery! Much obliged!

Nice RK. That is one sad looking football! I also like the shallow DOF and the color looks great.

RK, I like the shallow DOF, which is very effective here.
