Red and Orange Leaves (Posterized)

Red and Orange Leaves (Posterized), a photo by randubnick on Flickr.

Here's another image of red and orange leaves. This started with a picture of a beautiful tree that I saw yesterday when I was in Lexington, Massachusetts. Tonight I cropped the original image to focus on the brightest red leaves. Then I used Painter 12 to simplify a bit of the background, and then posterized the image. Finally I cropped it again to get this composition.
