There are You-Tube videos also; just do a Google search.


YouTube of course, where there is a video on everything.
Thanks Linda

The old Tiffen enhancing filter, designed to super saturate warm colors, mainly reds and yellows on film. Now it’s all done in the camera settings or post production.


I just have to get better with post I guess.
Thanks

Your camera has an "autumn colors" in the SCENE mode you might try.

General tips: don't shoot in direct bright sun; shoot early in morning or late afternoon. Just after a rain will help give you saturated colors, as will under-exposing. Backlighting can produce beautiful results, as can your photo editor


Linda, what can I say, I am always amazed by your pictures, Thanks. I keep forgetting about the scenes. Yes I know early/late, rain - what is that, have not had any rain in close to 6 weeks. Underexpose yes.
Thanks for responding.

I use a polarizing filter for my daytime, leaf peeping, photographs. The polarizer cuts down the reflected glare of the leaves. If you are in the right position it will make the sky look bluer and emphasize the clouds. Even when I'm not photographing in the "right position" I still use the polarizer to cut down glare.


That is one filter I keep forgetting to order. I had it on my last camera. Off to Amazon I go.
Thanks for responding.

It is much easier to do it in post with a little bit of vibrancy and saturation adjustment.


I can try post, but I can never seem to get the look I am trying to achieve.

Polarized glasses with a "tobacco" tint is what you probably are referring to. They're sometimes called "miracle, glare-reducing" glasses in ads. You can duplicate the tobacco tint in post, but nothing can duplicate the polarizer - especially on a rainy day!


Thanks for responding TonyBot.

What was the color of the sunglasses? And were they polarized? Might give you a clue for a starting point.


Alx, the glasses (plastic) were old and faded but were a brownish/amber. I wish I had kept them. Not polarized (I'm too cheap). Thanks for responding.

Is there a best filter to make the changing leaves colors extravagant? I had a pair of sunglasses one time that when I wore them, the leaf colors just popped out. I would tell my wife "Look at that tree, brilliant red..". And of course, she would say, where? I would remove the sunglasses and see what she was talking about. So my question is again, what filter would be best?

Thanks again for your help.

Not that it matters in this case, but .....Nikon D5600 and kit lenses.

Thanks all for your replies, but bingo to Mark. With the name you gave, I did a Google search and found out you are right and found a picture that had been taken and posted just a few miles from here.

I have found a couple of these spiders in the yard and just wondering what kind it is. It is scary looking and I hope I never walk into one's web at night. The main body is about 1-1/4 inch with a leg spread in this picture of about 6 inches.

Most of the time as I am signing out of the UHH I get a full page warning from Webroot saying that this is not a safe site. Is anyone else having any similar problems with this site?


This site is very safe. I have used Webroot for about 20 years or so and have never had a problem with them. Never had a virus. On my computer, it has never given any warning about this site.

You can pretty much forget about facial detail, however you may get some interesting
shots of the action on the entire stage area.


The concert is the Mannheim Steamroller Christmas show. It is music but it is a light show also, kind of like a firework show indoors. No faces needed.
