The Fall Needs Light


Indigo LakeI went for a walk around Indigo Lake to try to catch some of the bright neon colors of fall that are quickly fleeting. By the time I got out of work and got down to the valley the bright sun had faded to a muted gray. I'm on a mission to try to find some sun with my camera before the season fades completely. Today was a failure in that department. It is remarkable how bright light can light up trees like neon signs. Without the sun, the fall foliage seems dead instead of vibrant. I used a Photoshop action Brian had given me called "Technicolor Dream World" to add some pop to the landscape. I liked this photo because of the gray algae lurking below the water contrasting with the colors of the leaves.

Kyle, check out Borton St. As you drive on Market from downtown towards Montrose, Borton is on the left, just after Portage Path (it's the left turn before Rose Ave). That street makes me smile. It's like a canopy of red leaves.
