What Can I Photograph in the Fall?

Not to sound like Captain Obvious, but just shoot fall.

Autumn is my favorite time of the year. I love how the hot sticky days of summer give way to cooler dry air. In normal times, school events, State Fairs, and football games are in their glory. I have to mention, it’s also the season of pumpkin everything. On a personal note, pesky bugs, like mosquitos, are less bothersome.

Here is a list of things we love to capture during this lovely season.

· Beautiful fall foliage

· Produce and flowers at farmer’s markets and stands

· Family members at holiday gatherings

· Gold and brown fields, especially ones with picturesque barns or animals

· Waterfalls surrounded by brilliant fall color

· In normal times, fall festivals. We have one near Charlotte called the Renaissance Festival. It is a goldmine of unique photo opportunities, a medieval comic con of sorts.

· Mist rising from lakes or rivers on early chilly mornings.

I am sure everyone reading this could add so many more to this list.

The second was taken at my favorite local produce stand, Randy Simpson's in Indian Trail, NC.
