My brother is set to arrive today for a short visit from the other side of the state. He, like myself, has taken to photography as a very pleasing hobby; he's set to bring his camera, lenses, tripod, etc. The whole nine yards; he's pretty much equipped for any type of shooting, as am I.
Later today, I'd like to go up north a bit to a particular alternate highway that has lots of dirt roads leading from it, to take advantage of some very photogenic scenery.
I haven't been there for many years, so hopefully the greens, browns, and early fall colors will be waiting for us.
Of the several photos on the walls of my home, most are from photo expeditions like the one envisioned for today; lots of close-ups, mountains, streams, trees, fences. I just like that kind of photography, and hope we have a good time together.
Actually, it wouldn't be difficult to get lots of good shots within walking distance of the house, as we live in a semi-rural area, graced with lots of trees, bushes, small critters, and our share of old buildings. Might just stick to home if the mood strikes.
The weather has just started cooling, and one of the smaller trees on the next property has already started to turn red and gold, preparing for winter. When in full color, no photo can do justice to the beauty that is around here; lots of shades, piles of leaves, pine cones dropping from the wind, and a certain crispness that makes one glad to be here.
