 Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
- Robert L. Frost

Very nice colors!! Bokeh here is very nice, and the lighting coming through the leaves is lovely.

Gorgeous. I like the black that is here and there. Lovely bokeh. If I could change anything, I might just have the single leaf facing the camera, but overlal, nice. I'd kill the tiny orange part of the frame. 7
