With blue skies, cotton wool clouds, Autumn leaves and gorgeous London light, today presented gigabytes worth of potential photos for the taking! Like most togs, I love shooting in Autumn but this season I am trying to capture a few less obvious Autumnal images.
My girlfriend and I ended up strolling down Regent's Canal this evening and I grabbed this shot shortly before sunset. It's a reflection shot but I like how flipping the shot around makes it appear as though the leaves are falling. Besides rotating the image, the only post processing was to increase the saturation and contrast.

Very clever & original shot. It made me stare at it for a few minutes trying to figure it out before I read your comments on how it was achieved. Love the colouring too. Fantastic shot all round...!
