I have to admit something about this shot. It was staged. I quickly grabbed a leaf off of a nearby tree and shoved the stem into one of the holes on a park bench in Hansen Park. I wanted to play with depth of field with the park bench.
The tree I yanked the leaf from above.
More fall leaves on a tree near Hansen Park.
I also wanted to see what would happen if I flashed the leaves with my Canon Speedlite 600EX-RT with a CTO gel on it. I don't think the light mix was that flattering. I was trying to simulate a "sunrise" look I did last year, but the background turned out too blue. I don't really know how to play with CTO gels yet. Also, this was the shot I took in my front yard.
More light mixed shots.
I really wanted to simulate that "sunrise" effect, but I totally forgot how I did it last year.
I guess the light mixing did help bring out the leaves from the background. What do you guys think? Good or bad? Comment below. :)
Two more light mixed shots.
I decided to shoot a portrait of a tree in Hansen Park at the end of my walk.
