Fall Color.

  Even though the assignment was to take pictures of color, I chose to make this picture black and white. I did so because in this part of the woods all the leaves were yellow and I decided that this picture looked better with the black and white effect, it also shows the ripples of the water better.
Shutter Speed: 1/60, Aperture: f/4.5, ISO: 400, Focal length: 84 mm, Flash: On

  I chose to take this picture because I like the contrast of colors in the trees and the reflection off the water shows the top of the trees even though they are cut off in the actual image. I liked how it looks like the clouds are resting on the tops of the trees.

  Here is another picture that I took because of the different colors. I like how the reflection colors the water all the way to the edge of the picture even through the rocks. I also like the dark rocks in the picture because there is so much color that the darkness helps balance the photo.

  In this photograph is a friend of mine walking along side a path lined with colorful leafs. I took this picture because there was so much yellow surrounding her, I liked how her bright red shirt stood out.

  I took this photo because I liked the way the green and red colors were a background to the tiny yellow leaves. I have one full focused leave on the side of the picture with a bunch of others slightly burred out. I like the twigs weaving in and out of the picture also.

 Here is a picture of a plant I liked because of the way the leaves were hanging from it's branch. The bright orange stands out really nicely after boosting the colors a bit and the darker background helps the brightness of the leaves.
