In the mood for some fall foliage?
Autumn is arguably my favorite season. Although an unusual pattern of weather made this year’s season a bit of a disappointment in my locale, there were some nice photos to be had. I was glad to get out and get a few photos during when the trees in our area parks were at their peak for fall colors.
Please note that this is a reboot of a series that went to seed a few years ago. I know that there are some photo hobbyists like me who post here already. Hoping to incite a bit more “community behavior” in our community blog. AndiF and BobX used to curate the old foto flog. Others contributed quite regularly, and I suspect I’d miss way too many people if I tried to name them all.
I don’t use anything especially fancy. Right now my Samsung Galaxy 6 keeps humming along, and it continues to serve me well for most general photography purposes. Unless that phone goes bad, I plan on keeping it for at least the next couple years. Some of our regulars have actual professional equipment, and before Photobucket turned into such a drag, we were graced by some absolutely stunning landscape shots, close-ups of flowers and insects, and some abstract photography.
I’ll have a new one up in a few weeks. I am planning to do this a bit earlier in December, so expect to see me back at it once more. Remember, a foto flog is not just for Fridays. Or perhaps I should say Friday is a state of mind.
Tips and recs always appreciated. Even more appreciated: your photos. I just know a few of our shutterbugs are at least lurking here. Call it a gut feeling.
Thanks for continuing to post this.
Not a problem. I loved the old foto flogs. In dark times like these, I really believe that some reminder that there is light and beauty in this world is desperately needed. We all can get so wrapped up in the sickness that has festered in our political sphere that we forget to take some time to enjoy the scenery. All of us need this. I know for sure that I do. Maybe a photo or a few photos won’t change the world, but they might change a life or two incrementally for the better. That’s a positive in my book.
