Cliche' shot of fall leaves, trees, and lens flare

Cliche' shot of fall leaves, trees, and lens flare by xtacocorex.
This experiment actually worked, the last time I tried getting the camera to do this (up in Minnesota during the summer) it did not work. This actually came out better then expected thanks to the awesome editing power of Lightroom 3 Beta.

Nice diffraction, looks like you got some from the tree leaves and some from the aperture. Also, nice flare placement.

Totally used the DOF preview to figure out the flare; couldn't really see the star effect in the viewfinder though. Erica wanted more saturation in the shot, so I did that (sorta off because she doesn't like lots of saturation).

I do too like lots of saturation. Not on people obviously, but on landscapes I think it makes the sky and other colors beautiful. I really like this shot a lot.

I just realized that I should have moved my car forward more and have done this vertically to get the road in it more. As it was, I was shooting over top of my car.
