Behind The Lens

Location

Oatlands in Leesburg, VA.

Time

Mid-afternoon in the height of the Fall season.

Lighting

It was very bright out but there were a lot of trees so light was naturally diffused.

Equipment

A Nikon D7000 camera with the Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens

Inspiration

The beauty of the many different types and colors of the trees.

Editing

This was post processed in Photomatix Pro for a heavier HDR effect.

In my camera bag

A Nikon D7000 camera. Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-300mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR Lens, a Nikon AF-S DX VR Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G lens and a micro lens, the Nikon AF-S DX Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8G Lens. I recently purchased a Fujifilm XT-1 camera and have been using that of recent with a Fuji 18-135mm lens and a 55-200mm lens.

Feedback

Paying close attention to the composition of your photograph is very important for a successful Fall landscape shot. The balance of color is another area of importance when shooting Fall colors. Although this particular photo wasn't your typical Fall colors of red and orange and yellow, it was still necessary to ensure that the flow of color made for an appealing capture.
