Beautiful light here. It really enhances the wonderful lines in the door. Love the colors too.

This is truly beautiful GJC.....the composition is great and the colour and light delightful. As always I admire your delicate touch with these.
How are you finding the D300 now you've had it a while?

nice minimalist feel, and lovely autumn colours - the yellow doors could be a close-up of a leaf.

The light falls nicely on the shrine paper. Nice framing.

The soft light on the hard shapes is incredibly beautiful in all its simple grace.

I adore the side minimalist of the photograph. As always the light is very well managed. And this small paper figure is welcome, has it a particular significance ? ;)

Great shot! A nicely different interpretation of an autumn image, and well composed and saturated.

Full of Zen. I like the white origami- it is so small but it adds so much more story and mood to the whole picture. Good shot.

this is really beautifully seen. makes me wonder about the white folded paper - what it's for and if there is anything written on it.
