Yes Marie I probably could, but it will have to wait until morning. :)

I prefer the B&W version to the color one although they are both nice Dave :)

Nope!...not there...that tree is different, Marie...there are no other colours but orangy red, not just orange and not just red but a combination...I've always wanted one so I am asking...

Apparently there are different cultivars of Japanese Maple. Some might provide that beautiful orange colour you love so well.

Dave, I like the black and white version too but it needs a little bit of lightening, just a tad...Along the road going to the Dandenongs, there is a road that are lined with eucalyptus whose trunks are all white and all straight. I haven't passed by there in years but I still remember it...similar in nature to this shot but it is not a walking path like this one but a driving path. As a former Banana Bender, I hope you have been there...

Thanks Binnur and Izzie for your further comments. Here is an adjusted version incorporating the suggestions from Marie and Izzie.

Thank you, Dave, for taking the time to indulge me.

What counts is what you like. Which version do you prefer? Do you like what you have done?
