Frosted Maple Leaf by

Frost on our japanese maple tree, a couple of winters ago. It can get cold in the Adelaide Hills! Location – Nairne, South Australia.

This image was published in Australian Traveller magazine in Dec/Jan 2009, and won me a Fujifilm digital camera.

    Yep! love this image Barb. DOF and colours are wonderful. I suspect that you guys will have some opportunities coming up this winter too :-) Hope you and the old fella are well.

  • thanks Graham, yep it’s getting cold in them there hills… well you know what I mean – but no frosts YET. Unfortunately the little tree these leaves were from has suffered with the hot summer, and there is not one decent leaf on it – so when frosts do come, I’ll actually have to get out and find another tree!! Hope to see you at next DDO!

    Love the contrast of the rich colour tones of the leaves versus the frost, perfect focus and details on the subject leaf and the DoF effect works so well, excellent work Barb,
