After the summer drought, we're having rain now every day and it's getting too much already. Tomatoes in the garden are getting black because of too much water and I'm afraid leafs will have the same faith. This is why I'm trying to capture what I can.
After getting a nice amount of advice from experimented and professional photographers, today I went out to take care of some business I had and also to capture some of autumn's beauty. It's that time of the year, when you have the opportunity to see and capture some of the most beautiful scenes, but you need to be at the right place the right time as nothing last forever.
I thought let's put to good use the amount of advice I got yesterday, so I shot some buildings too, but I'm not going to upload those today as I need more first. Today's post is going to be about nature only. Mother nature deserves separate posts and as many as possible this time of the year as she's creating her nicest artworks.
My first target was the alley, which is gorgeous this time of the year. These old trees are spectacular, when you shoot them against the blue sky, not to mention, when you have more than green. Yellow for example.
When I looked at these branches, started to smile as this is 100 times easier than buildings.
It doesn't matter if these trees are leaning right, or left, the photo is still cool and interesting.
Looks at those branches, growing in every direction. There's not a single straight line on the photo, so you can't go wrong with it, mo matter where you stand or how you keep the camera in your hand.
Does this photo look off to you? Not to me.
Most of the leaves are changing color, this one was too.
Then I saw this scene and could not leave, without taking a few photos.
The truth is, you can find ivy everywhere and most are beautiful, but the background sometimes can ruin everything. This time I was lucky as the paint on the wall is not too old and it's gray, which makes it perfect for the job. A neutral color is always better.
Looking at the fence, I suspected the ivy was more beautiful on the other side, but that was private property and I respect that.
Then I found this beauty, the horse chestnut. I've been hoping to find one still in the pod, but it's not an easy task. Usually the pod cracks first, while till on the tree, then the chestnut fells on the ground, then the pod.
And there's the chestnut, still wet from so much rain.
So this is part of the capture today.
