Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III__EF24-105mm f\/4L IS USM__0.7 sec at f \/ 16__ISO 400<\/p><\/div>\n

Last week, I was photographing in Zion while traveling with my family. \u00a0I returned to a favorite location and was thrilled to find favorite red maples in fine autumn dress. \u00a0My kids loved the spot, and they spent about an hour burying each other in the sandy wash. I climbed around the steep slope opposite the trees and slickrock wall, looking for good compositions. \u00a0There was a breeze, so with each framing, I waited and watched for the leaves to stay still. \u00a0Here is one of my favorite versions from that afternoon.<\/p>\n

I am continuing to process images from my trip, so come back soon to see more new work.<\/p>\n

Enjoy! \u00a0 Bill<\/p>\n

I have also attached a 4×5 film image, taken from the same location in 1985. \u00a0Back then, when using Ektachrome 64, I used an 81A filter to counteract the blue balance. \u00a0This accounts for some of the color difference, as does later stage of the maples and oak’s leaves. \u00a0Ultimately, color is a matter of taste. \u00a0I “feel” far more than “think” when I create and process my images, and sometimes the interpretation of the same locations can very different. \u00a0I have learned to trust my instincts more than second-guess them.<\/p>\n
