4,5,6,7

These pictures kinda all go together, so here they are:
 This is probably one of my favorite landscape pictures I've taken. It's focal point is that bright red tree in the almost center of the photo. The pathway naturally directs your eye up to the tree. The mountains are a beautiful backdrop and I love having natural sunlight in photos. All the neutral colors make the red tree stand out. I took this photo up at Lambert park in Alpine. It's a beautiful park and right now the changing autumn leaves create a spectacular view.
 This is obviously the same location as the picture above with a few small changes. I cut out the full sun in the viewing frame therefore causing less exposure so the colors weren't as strongly contrasted. I also took out the tree on the side and so the camera focused a little better. And then that would be my little brother and cousin walking along (aren't they so adorable?) So the two pictures are different yet similar, which one do you like better?  
 The bright red tree in the photo above? Yep, this is the same tree, just a different view. I love the color so much and taking the photo from underneath the tree creates some cool lines. These photos can be hard because there is not focus point. I tried to create some shape with the larger branches being in the right bottom corner, but it might have been nice to have had at least a small part of the main trunk included as well.
Wildflowers are another one of my favorite photo subjects. The focus on the flowers was pretty solid except for the one on the far left corner that wouldn't focus because it was turned the other way. The background has a partially dead tree in it, which isn't the best back ground, but it helps create that more wild, natural look.
