Taken in the freezing Chicago winter. It's miraculous that these leaves haven't fell or froze yet. It was between 7 and 8 p.m. and I just used my simple and trustworthy Canon Powershot a95. It is a 13 second exposure.
And this is my first submission. Woohoo.

I can't see enough detail in the leaves. I think it would have been better with a little more light on them to increase the contrast between them and the background. Also, I think it would have been better with every leaf in focus, the back ones are to oof. Just my opinions....and the reason I voted a little below average.
I sense a lack of focus in this one. I know I'm not much of one to talk, but I had a hard time immediately recognizing the subject of this shot. Perhaps more color?
