Landscape

Autumn colours taken at Westonbirt Arboretum

This set of pictures were taken at Westonbirt Arboretum back in September last year using my Zuiko Olympus OM 35-80mm F2.8 lens on Fuji Velvia 50 slide film. This time round I decided to focus in on detail and also picking out contrasts in colours, instead of a wide angled landscape image. This was my first visit to Westonbirt, and I would go back again roughly around the same time of year as there is a large range of different trees and plants.

First up a blaze of red leaves taken at F4

Then red & green against blue at F11 & -2/3 exposure compensation

A good example of the range of colours when leaves turn at F11 with -2/3 exposure compensation.
