pauledell Posted November 19, 2010 Share #2 Posted November 19, 2010 Herb, An excellent picture of your national emblem. Perfect composition, great color and sharpness. Did you photograph the leaf laying on ice? Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

neal Posted November 21, 2010 Share #4 Posted November 21, 2010 I think your Maple leaf might have fallen from a red oak, nice shot though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geaibleu Posted December 1, 2010 Share #6 Posted December 1, 2010 It looks indeed like having fallen from a Northern Red Oak (Quercus rubra). The maple leaves tend to have a broader base, just like on them flags. Here in a similar situation, a more conventional maple leaf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geaibleu Posted December 1, 2010 Share #7 Posted December 1, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) The second half of my message was not quite ready at the time of posting. It's a simple question: Is a young lady prettier because she is known as Valerie as opposed to Marie or Oprah? In other words, does it matter whether a nice and well composed picture has an element which may not be correctly identified? The answer is clearly NO! What matters is the pictorial emotion, full stop! I liked the leaf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
