Beautiful autumn foliage
Despite the unpredictable lousy weather, autumn is a favourite season of mine because of the colourful foliage that surrounds us for a few weeks, even in our drab neighbourhood. That is why I chose the subject 'autumn colours' in last month's theme for my monthly photography project.
I looked back at my past photographs of autumn foliage and I was disappointed. Despite the many times I enjoyed seeing the colourful autumn foliage I forgot to take photographs of it. When our sons were much younger we walk them to school before I go to work. In that short walk of 5-10 minutes, our eyes would have feasted on colourful foliage.
The photos I have featured in this post are a few years old already. This was when I was just starting out my photography hobby. Most of them were within a 5-minute walk from our house. I even tried to be creative on a couple of shots - selective colouring on a maple leaf and a zoom blur shot of a fallen yellow coloured cherry leaf in the middle of other cherry leaves.
There are a couple of photos here that were taken in London. I had the good fortune of travelling to London in autumn on a couple of occasions but that was quite a few years back now. One occasion was a team meeting in London and the other occasion was when I went to the Philippine embassy to process some documents.
