Description
An October day along the Cataract rail trail in South Western Ontario, Canada.
I've written a haiku to go with this image:
Autumns golden gate
Leads us further into age
Where soon winter comes.

I think your image if wonderful! But as you wish for comments, in the 200 Club group, I would say cropping a bit from the bottom and top, could make this even more beautiful. The colors are wonderful!

For me, the blue in the top right hand corner is a distraction pulling your eyes away from the end of the tunnel formed by the path and the trees. I would crop to a square, loosing most of the image at the top ensuring that the tree on the right has its top cut of. The colours are great, but could do with a little bit more life in them.
Nina Silver replied:
Thanks for the suggestions, Colin. The thing I like about FAA is that customers can get a variety of products with a variety of cropping options.

Nina - I think you have a beautiful fall shot here. As far as constructive comments, you may want to try deepening the colours a little bit more all around. This can be done with the levels sliders in PS. I also agree that a tiny bit can be cropped off the bottom using the 5 x 7 ratio to get a perfect fit for a greeting card size.

Thanks for the suggestions, Doug. I appreciate the time you took to look at this.

This is a really pleasant, clear shot with nice colors and an inviting glow at the end of the trail, I think I would like it a little better with less of the bare tracks in the foreground.
Nina Silver replied:
Thanks for your comments, Barbie. I wasn't prepared to cut off those amazing trees in the foreground. They make the statement in this image.
