This post describes how I made the funky-color Kyoto fall\nleaves<\/a> image from the other day.<\/p>\n\n

I'd wanted to check out the vine growing through a bamboo<\/span>\nfence<\/a> again, in afternoon light (as opposed to the morning shade I'd\nseen it in before), so I went<\/span> back on Wednesday afternoon. It was a<\/span>\nproductive visit, with a few<\/span> shots of the fence that will certainly find\ntheir way here in the future. However, the subject of today's post is what\nI saw<\/span> when I looked<\/span> up.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nKyoto's impressive autumn colors are in full force now, but there are some\ntrees that are slower in turning, and evergreens that won't turn at all,\nand the resulting range of colors is something that really appeals to me. I looked<\/span> up and found a screen<\/span> that's common this time of year: highly dynamic\ncolors mixed in a highly<\/span> dynamic space (that is: lots of depth and color to\nthe scene).\n\n<\/p>

\n\nI fired off three quick shots, focusing at points close, middle, and far. You can see<\/span> these three shots by mousovering the first three boxes below\nthe image:\n\n<\/p>\n\n
