Autumn Leaves In Prescott

Autumn leaves in Prescott and leaf photography in Prescott Arizona. This blog post will be dedicated to leaves! Sound boring? No way! When I have more time, I will write up a bunch of content for this page, but for now, I'll just add a bunch of pretty pictures. As this blog isn't just a photography blog showing off pictures, and is more in regards to looking for new ways to capture images as a photography guide in Prescott, I would like for you to critique the images below and leave some comments at the bottom of the page.


Don't get me wrong, I love beautiful pictures. Perhaps it is the type A personality in me, but when I look at autumn leaves in Prescott Arizona I am always looking to improve my leaf photography in Prescott as well. I am always asking myself questions, such as, "What different angles could I have used, or if I am looking at another's pictures, what different angles could the photographer have used?"


Also, I'm always looking at the lighting. The natural lighting, not artificial. I also examine the overall perspective of the entire picture. I'm not as worried about all the 'rules' that most photography schools teach, such as 'thirds' and such, but more about, did I, or the photographer, capture and focus on what needs to be focused on in the picture? As we just finished the fall/autumn season, autumn leaves in Prescott and leaf photography in Prescott is going to be a big topic here on this blog, at least until it snows. I love the snow, as I have already mentioned several times before.


So, feel free to examine the images blended into this post and critique all you would like. Remember though, we are not here to critique as much the 'finished product' as much as we are looking for better angles and lighting. Such as, did I squat down to get the picture, or did I make the most common mistake and take the photograph from my usual standing position? This is a HUGE topic I will cover again and again. Especially when subjects or topics are low or on the ground, such as leaves. Autumn leaves in Prescott and leaf photography in Prescott means that after the wind blows the leaves off the trees, guess what? They are all over the bushes and on the ground. This means, to get the proper angle, you have to squat down, on your knees, or just all the way down on the ground.


What do you think of these images in regards to autumn leaves in Prescott and leaf photography in Prescott Arizona? And what I'm looking for, or focus on, are the angles and lighting, NOT the pretty colors, post-processing, etc., etc. Not to be rude, but anyone can do that, and it's not photography. It's important, sure, as is knowing all the settings on your camera, but again, this is NOT what I focus on, and it is NOT what my seminar/class is all about.


How about these? What would you do differently? I know and realize it is tough to critique when you are not out in the field, looking at your surroundings. And this is why my seminar is NOT on-line or in a classroom. I teach all of this to you while out in the field, on a trail, in the woods. This is a beautiful time of year for autumn leaves in Prescott and leaf photography in Prescott Arizona.


Once again, please feel free to share your thoughts on any and all of these images in the comment section at the bottom of the blog post. There are certain specifics I'm looking for in these images or pictures, and I want to see if YOU see them and point them out. If not, I will point them out in the seminar. (If I pointed them out here, you wouldn't need to attend the seminar, now would you?)


Okay, now that is just a small sampling of autumn leaves in Prescott Arizona as well as leaf photography in Prescott Arizona. I will be adding a lot more images to this blog post, as we just finished up with autumn/fall, and I have a lot of pictures.

I'm going to wrap up this blog post  for now, as I am extremely busy putting together the actual content of the seminar. There is not a lot of paperwork, but I do want to have some information for you when you take this class. Yes, the majority of your time will be out in the field taking pictures. This is what I want, and this is what this seminar is all about. Autumn leaves in Prescott as well as leaf photography in Prescott is abundant this time of year, thus this is the topic for now. It's a Saturday as I write this, so I hope you have an excellent weekend, and I'll chat with you soon!
