 We're out here to see if I've got my large-format camera working And we're getting a chance to see some areas that I've never been to before and I'm actually kind of like what I see here starting to rain I Kind of just kind of forced a few shots. We got rained out yesterday And so I decided I was gonna come back out here a few more photos I didn't bring no way today. I left it when I had left her home So I noticed this this composition or this possible composition out yesterday And I really wasn't comfortable bringing her It's a straight drop off right there. It's It's a little unnerving and I just I would just be worried about her so So today she she's gonna have to miss and It's uh, it's my loss. I really enjoy having her out here But I just can't risk her safety for a photograph Yeah, mine's okay, you know and it's still a good chance of rain So I went ahead and left the 4x5 wooden field camera at home and we're back out here with the Nikon digital d810 The old Nikon d810 and this first composition I'm making here. I noticed this rock yesterday and I Thought it was kind of interesting It's kind of in a weird spot. I'm getting a little more sky than I want Having a hard time getting an angle that that I like But I'm gonna hold and take some shots here because I'm pretty close and maybe I can crop it a little bit And I want to get it on the computer. I kind of like this shot here the scene with this long land that's Growing out here to the side Gotta go on over the trail. It's kind of cool. I've uh Switched to a 50 millimeter lens So I can get less sky in right now the sky is kind of bright and white. It's kind of dark in here So to to have Not to have the eye pulled out of the frame there might be a little bit of light color up there, but With the 50 it eliminates a lot of the sky the sky is really not important in this shot I just like that that big arch Arching lining is holding up that that huge branch there. It's pretty cool It's like we're getting a little mist blowing in here This might add a little bit to the scene I'm gonna take a few shots with another few frames this mist. It's it's a nice thing to have It kind of softens the scene a little bit Kind of gives a little more atmosphere. It's not real dramatic. It's pretty subtle The sun's behind me. I don't know if you can see me, but yeah, it's pretty subtle. It's uh But it is adding a little bit to the scene So I've got all these woods that I can explore over the next few years and look for different things different seasons When you find something fairly close to where you live That you weren't aware of it's it's something to celebrate As a photographer, I'm always looking for new locations that I can get to when the conditions are really good or different They don't have a ton of people and This is just far off the meet-and-track just out just a little bit far enough that I Don't think there's gonna be a ton of people in here. I haven't the last two times. I'm Well today and yesterday. I haven't seen anybody back here, which is pretty cool We're already getting close to the end of the autumn. It's Getting to the tail end of it here. It's such a short season. I Feel like I've hardly had a chance to do anything in it hardly any photographs Why another reason I wanted to come out this morning is I really needed to Try to get at least one more shooting before before autumn is over that that time between summer and winter It can be really short here in the Northwest Folder cut my attention and out here in the middle of woods this nice rounded moss covered structure with these trees dark colored trees vertical Kind of going off in the distance. I thought that kind of a neat combination Really really like it back here. I Really like the contrast in these trees. They're really really dark And back through here, we got lots of nice fall color And I think there might be something off this direction with just the trees themselves Autumn photography Even if you don't get something good The experience of being out in this autumn color is Reward enough so I'm gonna make my way back to the car. I think I'm gonna go ahead and end this video right here Gonna run out of breath. It's the next time Thanks for coming along for the ride. I know that wasn't too graceful I'm getting tool for this crowd. Yeah, that was a graceful move right there, wasn't it?
