I actually took this photo on Tuesday. I had happened to look out of my window to see the setting sun lighting up my favorite tree! The golden color was so vibrant amidst all the grey shadowed things I could see out my window.

223 - first snow of the season

Here it is, a photo of the first snow of the season (as seen from my office window, hence the screen). Yesterday att the time I took this, the snow was fairly light, so it is basically impossible to see snowflakes in this photo unless you look at the thick parts of the tree. It picked up shortly after I took this, and this morning there was still snow on the ground!

The vines on the building I work in are also quite bright and fall-like.

This photo is one of my new favorites. I just really really like it a lot. I think the colors, lighting, blurriness, and whatever else is going on, just go really well.

This is the tree that I can see out my window. This photo was taken two days ago. Today it is much more vibrantly colored.

I found this wall yesterday in Hanover and was kicking myself for leaving my camera at home. Luckily the weather today was as brilliant as yesterday, so I had a second chance for a photo. I think the fall colors are slightly more vibrant today than yesterday as well. Bonus! And we are, of course, back to the lensbaby. This is also probably the first post I have made on the same day as I took the featured photo.

This photo was Gimped! I saturated the blue and green slightly. And then upped the lightness & saturation of the entire photo. And then added a feather border. This one was a little more subtle than the last I think.

The tree again, looking up from underneath. I also added a feather border to this photo. I always like how photos that are darkened at the edges look, but I'm not sure I've mastered the skill. I also don't know how to save the GIMP settings so that I can just apply the option to future photos. So much to learn!
