This photo was taken near Chelyabinsk. It’s the territory of the Ural Mountains, one of the most beautiful regions in Russia. Here you can see old quaint gray-haired mountains, picturesque woods, beautiful rivers and lakes... Our autumn landscapes are absolutely gorgeous. But when I decided to take some photos, there were no colorful leaves on the trees, only sad rust color leaf litter… So I was really happy to find this place. The trees here are: with white trunks - birches, with red berries - mountain ashes, with yellow barbs - larches...
The weather was cloudy, there was no direct sunlight.
This was a shot on a Canon EOS 600D, focal length 29 mm, shutter speed 1/40 sec, aperture f/5.6, ISO 100. No other equipment was involved.
Autumn is my favorite season. I absolutely agree with George Eliot: “Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking for the successive autumn”… Autumn beauty is a great inspiration for me.
If I am asked to give an advice to anyone trying to capture something similar I will suggest: do not wait for perfect gear, perfect weather or perfect mood. Just go and take photographs.
