Nice competition! My entry is two photographers snapping autumn maples and acers at Westonbirt Arboretum.

LOL when someone commented on Flickr under the photo: "Gorgeous colour and a fine shot. I can only see one Photographer though"

Thanks. It was a wonderfully overwhelming experience to see "live". I was there with my teenage daughters who were remotely not as keen as me to look at/snap all those trees but even they were in awe. Must try to return same time next year.

Great shot, I enjoyed breathtaking colors as well as two photographers' fascination with breathtaking colors!

I see the guy in camouflage. His jacket and pants are mismatched patterns so he stands out.

Is there a 2nd photographer hiding?

Thanks. It was taken on 28th October 2016, in the morning. Westonbirt is a wonderful place to visit in the Autumn, but the timing is key for the acers, as is good weather.

just like any camo I ever worn while hunting

it never matched the actual terrain I hunted in and I stood out like a sore thumb

______________

seriously, very nice photo

I especially like the "stair case " effect of the leaves on the center tree drawing my eyes up to the higher leaves on the tree on the right of the photo.

Amazing colours.... the guy in the camp is saying "can you see me now?"

It's imperative to wear came when photographing trees, they are easily spooked.
