    1st. GlenW: Aeonium zwartkop.
    Superb colours and inteligent use of shallow depth of field to draw the eye outwards and send it back in again

    2nd. Hornbeam: Jeweled Leaf.
    This photo relies on technical perfection and Hornbeam nailed it top dead centre!

    3rd. Marge: Lotsa leaves
    A lovely autumn picture that's been difficult to capture with everything so late

    Too many other good photos to mention but Fun Title of the Month has to go to Banana Man for 'Unbeleafable Indian Summer has Bean Tree-mendous' :D

    1st.. All Washed up -- Frogesque. You are waiting for the bubbles to burst & the leaf to float away..!!
    2nd.. Foliage Fiesta -- BananaMan. Just so luscious... Makes you think of holidays..!!
    3rd.. Florida Fall -- Paladin. You just get the feeling that those leaves are changing with the chill as you look at them..!!

    [​IMG] Well this month really has yielded some wonderful photos.. [​IMG] You can see how the colours have changed during the month just looking at all your photos... Nature really has the best colour palette, don't you think.? ..!! Sorry to all who didn't get my vote, you all put in such great photos.. Well done everyone & Good Luck ..!!!! [​IMG] [​IMG]
