Here, then gone

[pforsell]

Didn't have much time to plan this. I saw one last shy sunbeam lighting the lonely leaf and I just shot it. Not more than 15 seconds later the scene was gone. So all I ended up with was this single noisy semi abstract. But the image speaks "autumn" to me loud and clear.

Got it spot on, colour is just right,

Good shot.

Had the same event occur with this photo, taken of a warming oven adjacent to my Mom's fireplace. The sun was setting and burst through the day's gray overcast for only a brief moment and was gone. I didn't have time to study the composition, so made a few exposures and hoped for the best.
