Bright November Leaves (Posterized and Cropped)

I am planning to paint this week, starting a group of small paintings (approximately 8 x 10). My idea is to do little landscapes, but closeups that focus in on branches (covered with flowers, or leaves, or berries, or snow). Tonight I was looking through my photos to pick some out to paint, and I came across a photo posted here on November 20, 2011. So I opened it in Painter and resized it, then worked on the focus. After than, I posterized it and then cropped it to get a rectangular format. I think this is going to be the reference photo for my first little painting of branches.
