Photographing Fall Foliage


The season’s vibrant forests filled with leaves changing colors beckons us to spend a day outdoors with camera in hand.  Taking time to enjoy nature can inspire us in several ways and influence our photography in positive ways.



Each time of day offers advantages and challenges, but many pros agree that shooting in the late afternoon – when your shadow is taller than you are – is a great time to photograph the great outdoors. Early mornings are also excellent, although you’ll need to decide if morning dew adds to your composition or simply complicates things.  And don’t let overcast skies deter you, either – the clouds can help emphasize the vibrancy of leaves and other changing foliage.
