The Trees Are Shedding Their Leaves

in #autumn6 years ago

I made a quick stop at Lake Joutjärvi while going to get my daughter from school. The trees are shedding their leaves quickly. Most will be completely bare within a 7-10 days. It may happen more quickly.

Those maple trees must have shed about a half of their leaves.

I like bright-coloured leaves back-lit by the sun.

The light was so poor that this had to be quite heavily manipulated in Darktable. I'm, shall we say, still getting the hang of using that program.

What is the temperature over there? Its going to rain the whole week here and cold. I dont like this weather. :(

It's really warm for the time of year. The national all-time October temperature record was broken yesterday. The new record made on the coast in the west of the country is 20.9 C. The old record from 1985 was measured on October 2 and it was 19.4 C. In Lahti in the south where I live, it was about 18 C yesterday. The long-time average is about 10 C colder.

Its the opposite here right now. We are having late brightness in the day, rain, windy and cold temperature below 14 oC. And this will be for this whole week.

It works nicely. Good to see your photos pick up on colour vibrance and not be so flat anymore. :)

Thanks. I do what you advices me to do. Correct white balance first. The exposure, brightness, shadows etc. and cropping & straightening last.
