Fall leaves, downtown Helena.

12 years 6 months ago #160958 by Lonestarlady61
I was downtown taking some aptitude tests and had to take a few shots. I was after close ups of the leaves so I opened up my aperture. I should have narrowed it down for these shots but I forgot :(








I want a good wide angle lens and more money for photo trips.

Thanks! I sure wish we had more colors here. It's mainly golds and yellow unless it's a maple in someones yard.

I should know better by now but my poor old brain doesn't work as well as it used to. :pinch: I forget to turn off my IS way too often also. And I wonder why my photos aren't very sharp. :toocrazy:

Thanks Shanna. What I liked about this area is the contrast between the bright leaves and the grey rocks.

I really don't see anything wrong with the photos. The DoF on the tree really works better tan if you made EVERYTHING is focus.

Shoot, learn and share. It will make you a better photographer.
