Thank you for the link sir!
That’s a pretty good article as far as it goes. There are two things that need to be mentioned, if you use aperture priority as suggested pay attention to the wind. At least where I live autumn is often a fairly breezy time of the year and requires a faster shutter speed to freeze what is the main subject, da leaves.
Bumping up the ISO can help maintain a smaller aperture and a high shutter speed.
I have found that as long as you are not making a pano or using a very wide angle lens a polarizing filter will pump up those colors. But, keep an eye on what it’s doing to the sky in your composition. This filter will change the intensity of the sky depending on its angle to the sun and I’m sure nobody wants a variegated sky.
