Adding a bit of Colour to my Life or Autumn Colours Part II

This image is AFTER I have toned down the colour – I am much happier but does it reflect my source material? How important is this or is artistic licence a greater force?

The question is ‘is there really one set of true colours or do we all see them same thing differently – and if we do how could we tell?’ I have always liked strong, bright colours so have I a selectively ‘seen’ just these and phased out the real colours of Autumn?

Do you see the same colours as say David Hockney or are they all just from his imagination?
