Hi Richard,
I don't think it can get much more "Fall colourful!" Than these well ripened
Tomatoes! Unless there were more of them? Which I might have looked for?
Simply because there is so many high end brilliant red they just pop off the
screen. That's a tiny suggestion only.
Dead center of the image just above the tomatoes there is a "bright area"
background
possibility window refection and distracting! This is one of those behind
the main subject we have to watch for particularly when you have such a high
impact colourful image as you have here.

Our eyes are quite taken with the brilliant red we sometimes miss a tiny
distracting element in the background. When you have a scene such as this I
do a very close look all around the scene deliberately looking for those
elements. The scene isn't going to go away so a few moments checking the
background can make the difference between a wham bang winner and a response
of?
" Ah gee whiz too bad he didn't see that bright highlight?"  Which
unfortunately takes the image from a winner beauty to... Too bad, close.
BUT? :-(

In situations like this with lots of "hot lighting and reflections? It's
very important.... TAKE AN EXTRA MOMENT OR TWO LOOKING!


cheers,
Dr. ted :-)
