Fall photography-we all do it. Who doesn't love those bright colors. To really get it right though you need to do a few things. One, get up early to get the tangential light of sunrise, 2) go out when there is a dense cloud cover to offer contrast to the leaves, 3) wait for break in the clouds to have the sun stream forth with its light to create the scene perfectly. For this shot a wide angle lens is a must. I used a Tamron 11-18mm with a 72mm polarizer, also a must to have color pop and add contrast. Camera was a Sony A 330 DSLR. The last ingredient for the nature photographer, and the most important is..................Patience. Jeff
MORNING LIGHT IMAGES Selected photographs of Jeff Perkins. I'm both a physician and serious photographer. Accomplishments: Permanent Exhibit at The Albany International Airport entitled "Arrival", located at the Security Entrance. This is a 3 panel 18 foot long panorama of stitched images reflecting our feelings of safe journey after 9-11. Exhibits at The Soho Gallery in NYC and The Photo Center of Troy, NY Enjoy. Jeff
