I like no.3 mate, not really sure why but I seem to be attracted to these kind of shots myself at the moment !

Thanks both.

I probably like the first one best as well. It was a lovely day for taking pictures of leaves. I should have gone earlier in the year while all the flowers were out!

3 and 5 for me, like the OOF background on 3, and the strangeness of 5

First and last for me, both nice but unusual shots.

Re: A few from today - Parc Cefn Onn

1 is now making a nice wallpaper on my work PC, I just wish the leaves were a bit sharper at 100%. I just looked up & liked the colours

Nice to hear positive comments. I feel I may be getting the hang of using the camera, I'm certainly changing settings with more confidence.

Like the gate post, very good image. Haven't been to Cefn Onn since I was in school.

#1 for me as well. That's a lovely and unusual shot. I'm really into transluscence at the moment and that fits the bill very well.

Re: A few from today - Parc Cefn Onn

No 1 is a cracking composition. The contrast of the dark twigs against the backlit leaves works really well. I like no 5 a lot too, very interesting to look at.
