(Reference to an old Chicago tune)
I spent last week in the NC mountains photographing in fall color. On several occasions people mentioned that they thought that “the colors are lousy this year” or “this fall is one of the worst I’ve seen.” I even heard someone say something like “this fall sucks.” While I admit that there were places where you might have to isolate the colors a bit, I didn’t think it was all that bad. As I review my images on the computer this week I’m not all that disappointed with the color. Could it be that we have gotten so used to looking at our images through Viveza-colored glasses that we can’t appreciate reality when we see it? Just a thought.
EVERY Autumn in the mountains is a good Autumn. It is just a matter of small degrees. Glad you had a good trip!
