Falling

I don't know about you but, I for one love the fall. Autumn colors abound, it's finally cooling down to a tolerable level. Fall fly fishing is usually on the epic side as fish in cooler regions tend to sense the coming winter and put on as much fat as they can in order to survive. When the first few cold nights come nature sends a message to the deciduous trees that it's time to prepare for the colder months ahead. Then the beauty begins to abound as the air clears from summer's dog days heat. For the photo nut, the colors turn to the warmer side of the color wheel while opportunities for beautiful imagery is everywhere. I have included today a few more HDR images and some stunning images of nature's finer glory. Enjoy and as always, PLEASE FOLLOW and TELL YOUR FRIENDS.

This was taken at Lake Mary in the Mammoth Lakes Basin here in California. The sun had just dipped behind the peaks of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. This is an HDR or High Dynamic Range image. I normally take 3 exposures at least 1 F-stop apart and combine them in photoshop. As you can see, the results can be spectacular. Of course, God's creation is the star here.

This postcard worthy image is of Rock Creek Lake in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California. While fall colors had not yet peaked, the splash of fall was quite dramatic.

This is a beautiful fall image of some vibrantly yellow bushes and their reflection along the shore of of Twin Lakes in the Mammoth Lakes Basin of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range in California.

I got out for some much needed shooting during a recent fall season. Here are some fall colors for 2013 from the local mountains here in Southern California. I used an HDR treatment here to really bring out the color.
