Article Review 2

Magazine:Popular Photography and Imaging
Issue: October 2007
Page Number: 26

The second article that I read was about shooting photos outdoors in autumn. Some artiful approaches to taking photos outdoors in autumn may be foliage in motion, which means to combine tree trunks with leaves swishing in the breeze. The shutter speed should be set to around the 1 second range. Another approach may be wide views overhead. What you should to is grab your widest optic and stretch out on the forest floor in order to throw the colorful underbelly of the canopy. Shoot along silky streams and capture a still life that sets the fallen leaves against the milky stream blurred by a low shutter speed.

Mounting a telephoto zoom on a sturdy tripod and aiming at the swatch of the intense autumn colors can bring out really nice color patterns in the leaves that are being photographed in the photo. Next the article said that the tripod mounted camera should be pointed down for the views of the forest floor and look for the natural artifacts that can be composed into a photo. Also you should target the most intense color and rhythmic pattern and avoid including a center of interest in order to bring out the texture of the photo more.
