Are we tired of fall colours yet? · 08:17 PM

I had far fewer turn out than I expected this year. I managed to forget my K200 was on ISO 800 for half of the day. I also kept switching to my 300mm and forgetting to return the SR to 55mm after. Despite all this, I managed to sneak a few good shots through. These are all from a boat ride on Pigeon Lake, Bobcaygeon, ON.

As always, I welcome all comments and CC.

the last two are pretty good

and no, fall colours are the best

Very Nice!

However I must ask.... Why did you set your camera to 800 ISO?

MrEspie · 10-12-2010, 09:07 PM

Thanks, you two.

Kingaircj: I was using it indoors the night before and forgot to put it back to my normal settings.

Kingaircj · 10-12-2010, 09:11 PM

LOL. I thought maybe I missed some trick when it came to fall colors and ISO.

Very nice, are the fist two of Boyd Island?

Some nice fall shots. Don't feel bad about the camera settings, I do it far too often myself. I usually catch it when I start wondering why the camera is setting a 1/4000 shutter speed when I'm shooting in AV at f/11.

Beautiful - especially the third one.

Kingaircj: I really wish that were the case - I really wouldn't feel so silly then.

Heinrich: Number two is. Number one is close though - that was just opposite the southeast corner of the island. I take it you're familiar with the area?

dcmsox2004: Thanks for commenting!

reeftool: See, I was thrown off by two things: First, I never have bright conditions. Second, I never change my ISO settings because anything over 100 with the K200D is iffy at best.

Jer: Thanks! That's my favourite too.

They are all beautifully done... I like the third one the best; seems to have more depth.

the swede · 10-14-2010, 10:43 AM

No, never tired of fall pictures. These are great!

MRRiley · 10-14-2010, 11:01 AM

Nice!!!

and no, not tired of the colors yet (ever actually). Plus they have barely started turning down here. Even coastal Maine was mostly green with only spotty color last week.
