Minimalist fall

It’s that time of year again… Many people take the time away from their jobs to do some traveling and to capture great fall sceneries. For me, the fall has always been quite a busy time. This year’s no different. After completing my PhD. degree I have to start from scratch away from the university. Unfortunately, the traveling to great locations to capture fall colors had to be postponed once again. Starting a new business project consumes enormous amount of time.

I’ve tried to capture at least some fall colors close to home. I don’t think the fall season is particularly pretty in my area. The forests aren’t old or tall enough in this area and the colors aren’t as vibrant. Nevertheless, the fall season provide some beauty here as well. I focused mostly on details (intimate scenes and details) and used my Canon 70-200 f2,8L telephoto zoom for most of the photos.
