Autumn- a kaleidoscope of colors!

Photographing fall colors has always been a deeply rewarding experience for me. However, this season, I wanted to capture autumn in a new way. I decided to experiment with a slow shutter speed to capture the vibrant foliage in a fresh and unexpected way, something different from my usual shots since 2013. When I took the first photo in Sault Ste. Marie last week, I immediately noticed a different and fresh look. The movement and texture brought a new energy to the scene, and I couldn't stop shooting after that, chasing the beauty of fall in a whole new light. This was shot in Algonquin Provincial park.
