LIGHT THROUGH LEAVES

After reading Kat's brilliant post this morning, Rimmed with Light, I rushed out to see if I could find a subject to experiment with. Unfortunately the sun (yes, we're in the middle of a very strange and early summer here in the UK!) was a little too high by then so I couldn't get the exact effect I was looking for. But I loved this photograph so much because of the beautiful colour of the foliage with the sun shining through that I thought I'd post it anyway and then try again later this evening when the sun is low again.
