Autumn in Didymia

The autumn leaves are peaking this week, so today was a good day to give the didymium filter a try...
















The filter has a natural mauve cast, so I tried a custom white balance through the filter to neutralize it. It skewed everything towards the reds, diminishing the separation between the reds and the greens. When both warm and cool colors are present, using the standard daylight white balance gave an optimal effect.
