The hillside above Silver Lake is perfect and awaiting your camera this weekend. The peak color will come next week so don’t wait, shoot it now. This photo was made on October 26, 2010 with a Canon 24-105mm zoom lens set at 40mm on a Canon 5D MkII full frame sensor camera. The exposure was 1/125 sec. at f-9.5 using ISO 400 and a polarizing filter. For information on exposure, lighting, filters and composition, please check our Tips and Techniques section.
