How did you get a fall leaf to reflect green? Fantastic. And that large green shape on top completes composition. You have 3 main S curves reflecting each other, and a smaller S curve, also reflected. The S curve is a beautiful line. You can't lose! 8 bump to 9
Thank you! The green was already there - I merely increased green and yellow in the colour balance, and decreased red. I felt that the green reflection was more important than the red colours in the leaf for this competition.
