There are only so many colorful, autumnal pictures that you can take and I’d decided that I wouldn’t take any more this year.

Then while walking the dog in the woods I came across this lovely, crooked tree. I liked the way the dark green leaves stood out against the brighter colors in the background. I just couldn’t resist it.

I would have liked more separation from the background, but unfortunately the lens has a maximum aperture of f3.5 and so this wasn’t possible.

Taken with a Sony A6000 and Industar 50 50mm f3.5 lens.
