Location
I capture nature in many parts of the world, but this one is from a local county park. I often walk with my camera because you never know when nature will explode!Time
This late afternoon shot provided a soft light that was still strong enough to make the colors pop against a cloudless sky.Lighting
Nature can provide it's own light but be prepared to offer a hand in post processingEquipment
Reflections was shot on an Olympus digital with a 35-150 zoom lense.Inspiration
You cant appreciate midwest US autumns without a classic color shot of the changing hardwood leaves. This perfect reflection on the small lake begged to be remembered.Editing
I do only minor processing, primarily cropping. I also softened the imageIn my camera bag
I'm simple. One Olypus body with a wide body lenses and two zooms. Filters are pretty standard for nature shooters.Feedback
Nature surrounds those who look but tells stories to those who see. Look wherever you go and try to see the stories. Those are the pictures to take. In this case, the trees have dressed in their finery, and appreciation is reflected in the lake's eyes as the move slowly toward the grand finale of winter.
