Submitter's name:	Olaf Greve
Title:	Autumn colours
Gear used:	Olympus Camedia C2020Z, lens set to the 135mm equivalent in 35mm format
Aperture used:	Somewhere around f4
Shutter speed used:	around 1/125th or so, the shot was underexposed by about 2/3rd stop
Media used:	Smart Media
Technical information:	I underexposed the shot slightly in order to saturate the colours somewhat more.
Subject information:	It was always going to be a tough task getting a good nature shot when living in the middle of a city, and when not having a lot of opportunities to travel and/or go to the countryside a lot for pictures. During one such moment, we went to a small nearby castle in Bad Bentheim (Germany) though, and on one of the walls there was this beautiful display of autumn colours. I tried several shots (some of which showed more of the castle walls, as well as some bracketed versions between neutral and 1 stop underexposure), and this close-up is the one I most like.
