Autumn is one of the most beautiful times of the year to be a photographer and the reason for this is because the landscape around us transforms itself. You start getting beautiful vibrant colours displaying in the trees, reds, ambres and yellows and you also get beautiful mists which float across the landscape creating this ethereal, mysterious beauty. I know for myself this is definitely one of my favourite times to be a landscape photographer. In particular there are three scenes which you can really excel from taking photos in autumn. They are woodlands, intimate scenes and finally waterfalls. Now two weeks ago I had the privilege of visiting one of the highest waterfalls in the UK and autumn was full in bloom at the time so I got some terrific photos that I was really happy with. Now if you'd like to check out my adventure there you can just click the link which appears above my head right now. With the autumn waterfall ticked off my list I was really excited about the prospect of getting out and shooting a beautiful woodland. For me this is one of the most gorgeous scenes that you can capture in autumn because of the beautiful vibrant colours which you'll experience. Now the woodland I've decided to visit today actually holds a lot of pleasant memories for me. In fact when I was a young child I used to come up here and lose myself in my imagination with my friends, we come on boat rides, we build dens and we just enjoy the outdoor. Now this woodland is also steeped in some very sinister history. In fact which craft has been performed in the very woods. But luckily I've heard recently that there's been no sightings which as you can imagine I'm very happy about. The woodland I've decided to visit today is a very beautiful woodland. I've decided to visit today's woodland which is a very beautiful woodland. I've decided to visit today's woodland which is a very beautiful woodland. I've decided to visit today's woodland which is a very beautiful woodland. In the outer town nobody's losing. So I have spotted an absolutely wonderful composition right over here. This tree has some beautiful vibrant leaves. You can see the yellow and the orange and the ambres coming through. It also has quite a wide separation here between the branches which gives it that extra contrast. To add to all this appeal there is also something else. You've got the beautiful sunlight which is lighting this up right now. I should take a photo very quickly before I lose this actually. And also there's a tree stump just over here which creates a lovely attractive foreground in the image. Now this may not look much from this angle but this here is providing a really attractive foreground. And the reason being you can see there's a lovely lich and a moss here which is just growing on top of what seems to be a tree stump. And this is really going to pop out of the image just nice green here. He's also got a few leaves on it and might add a few more leaves just for artistic value we'll see. But yeah this is going to be my foreground and then the tree over there is going to be my background. Let's take the photo and see how this pans out. It's really incredibly difficult to set up the video camera showing you the composition here but I think I've managed to do it. So as you can see I've got my camera set up upside down and I need that so that I can get the stump here in the foreground in focus while getting the tree in focus as well. So if I just stick on my camera you're not going to be able to see this from here. But the composition is vertical obviously and what I'm doing is I'm shooting this at F8. So I'm just going to go ahead now and take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. I'm going to take the photo and then I'm going to take the photo. And smiles with me when I'm done. So you should be seeing a lovely silhouetted version of me right now where I'm nice and dark in the foreground against a beautiful clouds in the background. Now I feel like I'm slightly cheating for this shot because I'm in the woodland and I've come to get some beautiful autonol colours but I'm actually shooting out the woodland to some far away trees and that's because at the moment the sky is just delicious. So I thought I'd have to capture this shot while I have the chance. Now it's really difficult to expose for this. I mentioned that I have less gear with me and I didn't bring any filters. So what I'm going to have to do is I'm going to have to take three different exposures. The ones going to expose for the trees and the other ones going to expose for the sky. And I'm probably going to have to expose as well for the foreground. And then what I'll do is I'll blend these three shots together in Photoshop. So I'm going to go ahead now, capture this and then you can see how it turns out in a minute. So the light is starting to fade, unfortunately. I would have liked to have spent a little bit more time in the woods just looking for different compositions. But unfortunately we have run out of time. So this is where I say guys thank you for watching this video. I really appreciate you supporting me on my channel on YouTube. I always appreciate you watching.
