 Posted: Fri Oct 22, 2010 4:18 pm Post subject: Bays in Fall/Autumn (awesome) photo thread |
 |
|
We have Bays in Snow thread but other then some scattered threads, there isn't seem to be one as extensive thread on Bays during Fall photos. And Autumn is so full of pic ops! Plus, it's my favorite season.
I'll start, just took a few today and here's one below.
I know I have seen pic of a beautiful late red panel in fall colours on some country path somewhere, hopefully that one gets added by whoever has it.
And if you can please keep it along the lines of really nice photos. We don't need to see random Fall camping shots with non-existent composition! Please choose your good shot(s)! Let's get it rolling...
P.S. My plate is not falling off and I know it's crooked.

Although it's a nighttime photo it was taken in the fall. This was the highlight of last weekend's campout along the Cache la Poudre river in Colorado. This is my new favorite bus picture.

Whoa, that's what I'm talking about, wallpaper material! And even though it's nighttime, it still has Fall colours due to lighting. Right on.
Feel free to post a link to the high res too!

I didn't take the picture. It is my bus though.
It was a single exposure where the shutter was open for 2 seconds or so. There may have been some slight digital enhancement, but basically what you see is real. |

Unfortunately for me, autumn looks exactly like summer, spring, and winter here in Las Vegas.

I "enhanced" a couple of them it a bit, taking out some of that gray weather. I know it's fake, but hey not more fake then using a filter!

Wow, those pics look amazing that you touched up!! That was first thing this morning in the White Mountain National Forest in NH. It rained a little bit overnight and snowed enough to shut down the Mt.Washington Auto Road....I was pissed!! It rained yesterday in VT. so those pics are a little grey....but it was beautiful and sunny today for our ride to Maine. We took all secondary roads. Incredible drive....I was surprised how many of the trees mimicked the colors of the Bus.

Just a slight brightness and saturation, that's all I did. 
I bet it would look closer to that on a sunnier day!
EDIT: one more from today.
