[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The peacefulness of Summer gives way to the start of Autumn. Colour in deciduous plants is caused when the green substance in leaves (chlorophyll) ceases to be made and when other pigments, such as brightly coloured carotins build up in concentration. The trigger for this is changes in day-length and temperature.

Wonderful, just wonderful! I just love the look f Ireland as you have so many photogenic rocks! This picture is fantastic and well composed and of course the main subject is the tree ... still I feel the rocks play the most imposrtant role. Very well done & TFS! 8/10

Pieter

wauuuu wonderful tree :o)

Stephen, this shot is incredible in its powerful autumn beauty.

The lighting does all the work here, IMHO, enhancing and highlighting the textures, colors, shadows.

I can almost smell the air, with the scent of autumn leaves and musty earth, and hear the gentle rustling of the leaves in the breeze.

Or perhaps, that is from my recent drive to the country, where I did sense these things...

Nice job, thank you!

Is that a beech?
The tree really looks amazing. Colours, light, POV and framing are great. And as always you've captured not only a beautiful view, but also superb mood, sunny Autumn mood in this case.
I like it very much.
VERY WELL DONE & TFS

What a beautiful capture, Stephen. I always wondered what causes the colors of autumn. I like the light streaming through the trees.

Something new Stephen ;-) Nice postcard from old forest, could be scenography for Lord of the Rings!

A different view of Your Ireland Stephen, and a very nice one it is.
Great POV, detail, colour and composition.
Thanks for posting, enjoy the rest of the week.

I like this Stephen. Great elements within this shot for the eye to follow. The subject tree itself & its massive trunk. I found myself peering deep into the forest, center-left. Excellent color, great light & shadow mix. This filtered light, scattered across autumns leaves forest floor adds greatly. Another masterful capture. Very well done.
Thank You.

A beautiful scene, Stephen. The play of light and shadow in the trees is perfect. Very serene and mysterious at the same time. A very powerful visual impact. Great work, and TFS. : )

A nice image to relax and look at. Nice work.
