I just love the colors of Fall!

This picture was shot in the back garden with the camera of my girlfriend exactly 4 years ago in 2013. It was the middle of fall and at one moment in the afternoon, the sun was really revealing all the fall colors with the leaves.
My girlfriend is into macro photography (please take a look at her Instagram) and because I had my camera not at hand, I grabbed her camera with the 60mm prime lens and rushed into the back garden to capture the specific colors in the fallen leaves. I always like photos with a very shallow depth of field. Therefore I had put the camera in aperture mode and dialed the F-number to 2.8.
The camera was set at an ISO 200, and with those two settings, the camera chose to have the exposure time at a 200th of a second with which I was totally ok for me. Post processing of the image? Nothing at all! The colors were just as they appeared in real life and no alterations were done, making it an impulsive photo!
