1. Use a Polarizing Filter šŸ•¶ļø

A polarizer can completely change your fall photos:

  • Make colors pop by cutting glare on leaves and water.

  • Deepen blue skies for extra contrast on sunny days.

  • Reveal hidden detail in streams and waterfalls.

    Pro tip: Rotate the filter while looking through your viewfinder until you see the effect you like best.

2. Change Your Perspective šŸ¤øā€ā™‚ļø

Most people shoot from eye level—don’t be like most people.

  • Go low: Kneel or even lie on the ground to make foreground details like fallen leaves stand out.

  • Go high: Climb a hill, tower, or boulder for a sweeping view of valleys and ridges.

  • Tilt & experiment: Slight angles can add dynamic energy, especially on winding trails or roads.

3. Slow It Down with Long Exposures 🌊

Movement adds magic to a scene.

  • Waterfalls & streams: Use a slow shutter (1/2–2 seconds) to create silky, flowing water.

  • Wind in the trees: Capture gentle motion blur for a dreamy feel.

  • Always use a tripod and set your camera to a low ISO to keep your image sharp.
