One of the things that'll give you a sense of the expanse of an area and the color that fills it is height.
#AUTUMN FALL IMAGES ISO#
If it's calm weather, I'll shoot at the lowest ISO setting and not really care how long the exposure is."
"But I use a tripod for everything, so shutter speed isn't usually an issue.

"I'll check the LCD to see what I'm getting and dial in some exposure compensation if I need to increase or decrease saturation." Another exposure setting tip: "Cloud cover will give you less light, and because you're photographing landscapes, generally you won't want to sacrifice depth of field by opening up the aperture, so I suggest pushing the ISO to keep your depth of field at a good setting while maintaining a high shutter speed if you're hand-holding the camera." Rod uses Matrix metering for everything, regardless of sunshine or clouds, then checks the histogram to make sure no highlights are being clipped. What's often best is cloud cover illuminated by sunlight the first photo here is a nice example of that. While a bit of gray sky is okay in your photo, remember to avoid expanses of uninteresting white sky. "An overcast day is best-first, because you can shoot all day long, and second because the light is soft and even." But doesn't overcast mean that the intensity of the color is decreased? Nope, not at all in fact, just the opposite: autumn colors are saturated colors, and they contrast nicely with a gray day. "People at the autumn tours will often tell me that the weather report calls for sun for the next seven days," Rod says, "but that's not good news." In autumn, sunlight is desirable only early and late, when it's essentially sidelighting. Not all things need be, or should be, photographed in bright sun.
And yes, there are apps for fall color's best times and places Google will reveal all. If you live elsewhere, your best bet is the website of your state's tourism board for timely, peak fall color information, perhaps even a fall color hotline. If you're thinking of focusing a photography vacation around the colors of autumn, or just want to spend a day or two in pursuit of the season's hues, Rod suggests three major regions to consider: the New England states the Colorado Rockies and the upper Midwest of Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota (all the photos here were taken by Rod in his home state of Michigan). To plant from seed, start indoors 6 to 8 weeks before last frost date or propagate divisions or tip cuttings in early spring."It's everything," says nature photographer Rod Planck, who ought to know: his fall color photo tours sell out faster than any other tour or workshop he offers, which is a testament to the image opportunities and overall inspiration of fall color. Planting time: Plant container-grown helenium any time between spring and fall."So sometimes it looks like you have different colored flowers on the same plant." "There are a quite a few varieties that change their shade as the flowers mature," Sanchez says. Also known as Sneezeweed and Helen’s Flower, it blooms from late summer through fall in shades of gold, orange, red, and copper-brown that are perfect for fall bouquets. Once it’s established versatile Helenium can also thrive in the high desert area she calls home. That’s good news if you’re planting a rain garden or have clay soil that drains poorly. In its natural state, Helenium autumnale is more often than not found in wetland areas along streams and ponds and in ditches that dry out occasionally.
