This bigleaf maple, or Oregon maple, in the Mt. Hood National Forest jumped out at me as I was looking for subjects yesterday. In particular, I was drawn to the cluster of four leaves in front of the tree trunk. It's a very three-dimensional scene, and I used a shallow depth of field (f4) to draw the viewer's eyes to the four leaves.
