We went to Denver for our niece’s wedding.  As always, I am seeking to find fall foliage scenery to photograph.  We rushed in the morning to go to Washington Park to see the trees.  It was a wonderful morning with a little remnant of snow left and the bright sun shining in the background of the leaves.  The sun highlighted the bright red hues of the leaves to bring out their beauty.  My wife was standing on the other side and could not see the brilliant colors because the sun was reflecting off of the leaves.  So she was very surprised how the pictures showed off the maple leaves bright red colors, since she did not see the same colors.

It was a peaceful morning enjoying the fall colors, and the still waters at Smith Lake.  As the time approached noon, the reflection on the lake became clearer.  It was a nice time to enjoy the quietness of nature.

Do you noticed the star sun on the upper left part of the photograph?  I put my “t” at this spot to represent the “Cross” and how Christ is our bright light.  Just as the sun shines to show forth the true color of the leaves, Christ’s brilliance can also be seen in us who follow Him.

Photographs not only reflect memories but can also teach us life lessons.

I took this photograph at the height of fall foliage in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. I was so excited seeing all the bright fall colors and took so many photographs.  Every time I review these photographs I see something new.

I am intrigued by the shadow on this Sugar Maple Leaf.  I like the shadow on the leaf because of the interesting design, and the contrast it gives to the picture.  I am not sure where this shadow came from.  It may be from another leaf.

I also love the bright red colors on this leaf.  In California, the leaves never seem to be as bright as what I saw in Canada!  It amazes me how brilliant this red orange leaf is.

What do you get excited about?  I keep fallling in love with fall, and it’s colors!  I’m excited fall is coming, and am looking forward to my future search for more fall colors.

I love keeping it real by sharing my photographs which are untouched!

Fall is around the corner

I love “Fall”.  When I photographed this image, I was in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, and happened to be there during the one week where Fall Foliage was at its peak.  Being from California, I never saw such brilliant colors during the fall.  It was also the start of a greater fascination with fall colors.

I like this center leaf with the variation of colors – bright red, yellow, and dark spots. It is interesting that each leaf is unique in design just as the uniqueness of an individual’s finger print.

I look forward to Fall every year now.  Last year, I missed the peak of fall foliage in Colorado.  But I still loved the bare Aspen tree forests.  This year, I will also be seeking to find more fall foliage.  Stay tuned to see what I will find!

As always, be assured this photograph is untouched and real!

In the Middle of Change

img_0874-copy-2In life, we do not always like change.  It is unsettling.  We have to adjust.  There may be unexpected things that occur where we need to figure how to handle.

Change can be beautiful.  We need to learn to embrace changes which help us to grow as individuals and realize we need  change.

This is a sugar maple leaf in the middle of fall change.  I took this in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario.  The striking yellow  and green veins indicate the middle of transition from  green to orange.  Our photos should record the transitions in our life.

This is another example of taking your photos with the light from behind to enhance the colors.  About 15 to 20 years ago, I would photograph 35 mm Chrome film for transparencies and slides.  When we would project the slides with the light from behind which would enhance the colors in the image.  Seek true color in your photos (then you will not need to photoshop) and record the changes in your life.
