Fall Pictures Thread #1

[legrandice]

Jake, sometimes you can't tell whether a pic is taken from a drone or not....like this one I took today with a hand held! I've starting to think the drones are best on flatter land where you can't get the higher views.
Again, colors just starting...

This picture taken in the river pictured above. The boat was around the left side of the frame when taken.

Some from today. The Drone pics are a bit rusty looking again.....it's the light, I think.

Craig . . . you probably mentioned it before, but I forget. What type of drone and camera set up do you have? I am quite impressed with the aerial shots.

These are from a Cheapo v262 and Mobius camera......

I'm about to pull the trigger on one step up (the DJI Phantom).....

But I like the idea of the cheap ones.......so you don't cry as much when you lose one!

If you want to get a v262 and a mobius, this guy is a great US source who pre-tests and stands behind them. Total cost with shipping should be about $200

Here's one of the boy taking a break from splitting wood

Looks like the 'boy' has become a young man.

I have some advice for him......

ooopppsss....I forgot!

Oh, listen to your mom.....

Here are some from in-town (easthampton).

Nice pics Craig. We are at about 35-40% color. I would expect the colors at the river to start getting pretty vivid at this point. I will find out this weekend.

Mrs. K - looks like you have your own little corner of peace. I like it. Throw that young lad a sammich and tell him about the good job he is doing.

I learned a little something about fall pics! It appears you have to take them in the opposite of how you usually take pics - that is, toward the sun instead of away from it. The sun coming through the trees as backlight seems to create the sheen.....

This is probably common knowledge, but I learn the hard way.

I have no doubt that you are correct but it is a tough one to get the boat that far up on shore.

was it not Thunderball where Bond jumps his boat out of the water and skips it across the top of a police cruiser? You might wanna try something like that...wear helmet for safety. also suggest burst of snapshots, you maybe don't wanna have to keep going back to try and get a better shot.

 

[Jags]

Hmmm...ski resort is close by. Maybe I could aim for the chair lift.

 

[webbie]

Light is nice tonight - now it's going to rain wed. and ruin everything!

 

[webbie]

This is at the front of our house - it's my baby's b-day, so we take the pics. Lots of color!

Adorable!

 

[Jags]

What a cutie.

 

[webbie]

Here are a couple little trees that caught my eye. They say "fall"....

Still some color here in RI (weekend place)....I'm going to try and fly the drone if the wind is low. Last night we had 40 MPH gusts! The windows were making noise...like bending glass!

 

[Jags]

Colors on the river are not there yet. I don't know if we just haven't peaked yet or if this might be a weak year. Next weekend will tell.

Speaking of weather. Afghanistan (The country) does not like us here! Not fun. Sorry, fall weather! If you do not know what this is, hold your breath. Sand Storm, can see it coming for miles. Didn't mean to stop the PRETTY PICTURES!

Took this one on the way home from picking up my chimney liner in Pueblo, CO
