Getting it Right in the Digital Camera : 2017 Autumn Gallery

Riverside Trail, Keene NH

Golden Wall, Newfane Vt

Given all the recent wind and rain, we have definitely drifted into stick season. It is time to work my way through all the brilliant fall foliage pictures. This year the task is sadly reduced, first because the foliage was spotty and dull, and secondly because I missed the first half of the season exploring the beauty of Italy. Again, it would be inappropriate for me to complain. Our tour was fabulous, and I returned with plenty of “foreign” images to work through, but I did feel the need to get out as much as possible to catch the remaining autumn color of New England’s unique season. Especially up north on Lake Como, near the Swiss border, we saw a smattering of color, but kept people asking whether the foliage in New England really was as spectacular as it appeared. What could I Say: “Il fogliame è magico”.

I got a quick start. Just a day after my arduous thirty-hour trip home, I had to start my second annual Fall Foliage Workshop. I had a great group of people, whose enthusiasm helped to jolt me out of my jet-lagged funk. I have already shared some of the images from the workshop weekend, but here I wanted to hang a bunch of my other foliage pictures.

Immediately after my workshop, I had to start preparing for my Introduction to Digital Photography course at Keene Community Education. After so many times, you would think that the prep would be easier, but every year I try to improve and update the classes. My first goal is always to find a way to simplify by eliminating some of my slide, but I always seem to add more.

It has become a annual tradition for me to use a blog article to splash a little color onto the our bleak November grays. So here, without much fanfare or expostulation, is a few of my favorites for this year’s autumn gold. It turned out that, if you looked hard enough the color was out there.

Thank you for looking with me.
