There is certainly good color here in hope Valley. The green is light in color and should be great this upcoming weekend. The west end seems to be a week later than the east end this year. This photo was made on October 10, 2010 with a Canon 24-105mm zoom lens set at 35mm on a Canon 5D MkII full frame sensor camera. The exposure was 1/125 sec. at f-8 using ISO 400 and a polarizing filter. For information on exposure, lighting, filters and composition, please check our Tips and Techniques section.
