Late Autumn Fall

Well I posted one from this same shoot earlier. It was drizzling and overcast the whole time, so I originally posted one that had some water drops on the lens... that didn't really work! Have also posted a summer version of this... winter one soon to come I hope. So one to try and make up for my drop-filled lens this time, this one only had a minor drop in the center that was cleared up... f-100, 1/4, f8.0. Thanks for looking and the larger version is also posted.

I like this a lot better than the previous version.

If you have having a problem with water droplets getting on the lens, may I suggest using a lens hood? That should all but eliminate the problem. If that's not a possibility - you could always put a ziploc bag over the end of it - as long as it doesn't cover up the FOV

Thanks Luke, agreed. I didn't even think we'd be shooting that day, but it slowed down and a buddy of mine had never been here before and wanted to see it, so we climbed down--but of course your advice is correct!

Very cool scene Bill...where was this taken? I also would consider cropping down a bit into the tunnel just to get rid of that grey patch of sky in the top center. Thanks for sharing. This is very nice. Michael

Hi Michael, this is in Wayne County, PA. I know, I hate that patch of ugly sky, but I thought cropping it lower would make it worse. Just IMO.
