Oaks Turn to Shine<\/p><\/div>\n

We really have two fall foliage shows here in Southern Maine. First the maples turn in all their firey glory…and then, weeks later, when the last of the maple leaves are just clinging on, the oaks turn their rich copper brown and the forest and roadsides are filled with color again.<\/p>\n

This is one of my two favorite vistas at Rachel Carson NWR, overlooking a bend in the Little River. This is higher than I generally frame it, but the oak leaves are as much the subject of the shot as the river and reflections. To me it all works together.<\/p>\n

Sony DSC H50 at about 55mm equivalent for framing. F4.5 @ 1\/250th @ ISO 100. Programmed auto.<\/p>\n

In Lightroom, slight recovery for the reflections in the water. Fill Light for the foliage in the foreground. Blackpoint just slightly right. Added Clarity and Vibrance and Sharpen Landscapes preset.<\/p>\n
