Thank you! It was one of those amazing autumn days. I'm amazed I was able to capture even a fraction of how beautiful it was.

Holy lemon of destruction, this is beautiful.

Actually, I don't have any nitpicking comment here. It's perfect.

Did you do any toning work in PS, or is this orange colour natural? Because it looks like heaven.

Wow, thank you!!!

Actually I tried toning that picture a little, but it made the natural color too fakey. So I went back to the natural state, and just heightened the contrast a bit, mostly to bring the clouds out a bit more. It only deepened the hues a little in the foilage. Actually the natural color to the naked eye when I was standing there was just astounding. Glowing gold and orange. I'm happy I caught a little of it in the photo.

Thank you Hermioneann. Believe me when I say the photo doesn't do the scene justice at all. It was really beautiful there that day.
