After the Fall.....

Hi All,

After the last leaves have come down in the fall, other photo opportunities await for the intrepid shooter. Slowing down is a good exercise in really observing what is around us. Making great images out of ordinary things is always a great challenge.



Photo 1

A Traditonal landscape image taken in my native Pictou County. The river follows an S curve, a staple in image design.








Photo 2

Is an image of a leaf on a piece of birch bark at Kejimkujik National Park NS. I liked the contrast between the two, and no distracting elements make the subject stand out .






Photo 3

Aspen and Poplar leaves on the forest floor after a windstorm offer an interesting composition.





Photo 4

More fallen leaves, this time of the Maple variety in a pond.






Photo 5.

A mushroom in an old growth forest in Nova Scotia, where there is not a lot in the way of fall colour.





Photo 6

Rosehips offer a lot of colour, and is a different take on fall.






Cheers,
enjoy the fall,

Gary. http://www.pbase.com/pgns/gmurray
