Tag Archives: fall  Autumn Photo Adventure ~ Part 1 Autumn Photo Adventure ~ Part 1 This year’s autumn photo adventure was a twisted uprooted version of it’s earlier self. Last year, my long time friend (since kindergarten), Guy, and I went to Maine on a trifecta photo subject quest – leaves, lighthouses, and moose. Our mission was a... 
What a wonderful trip! Fabulous images. 
Great photography Kent! I want to be a “leaf peeper” one day! LOL 
Nice shots Ken, looks like a particularly beautiful part of the world your living in you lucky man. Thanks for the follow. Andrew 
So would you consider a “leaf peeper” to be the same as a tourist? And is that a good or bad thing? 
Wow! Loved this post, Kent. I’d like to do this with my photography-loving daughter sometime. Sounds like a wonderful adventure! 
Hi Kent – Just came across your blog recently and have been following. I gotta say that I love this post. Especially loved the poster about “Post No Politics”. What a catch! Andy 
Great shots as always. Glad you took your son, I’ve learned those times are precious. Not sure how you did it, but you seemed to find a lot more blue sly and white puffy clouds than we did. Still, it’s a beautiful part of the world even when it’s soggy. 
Great shots. My brother lives in Vermont and your post makes me want to go there NOW and start taking some shots. Just started reading your blog and it’s very helpful. Thank you so much!
It was well worth the trip. I think with leaves like that I could wander Vermont endlessly! 
Wow! Great shots Kent. Love your style and your eye. I only hope to have a portion of your talent one day. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for such kind words. You’re modest! I’ve seen your work first-hand. You are very gifted as well!
Aw, thanks Kent. That is part of what makes you such a great teacher, you are so encouraging. Thanks for all you do for your students! Can’t wait to see the rest of your images 
How exquisitely captured… the season… the region… the relationship. What a beautiful post, Kent! 
I loved this post. Amazing photos and story! I went to take pictures of the leaves last week…but in Wisconsin. Mostly they were brown. My friend and I had a discussion about how beautiful the scenery was in New England (where she was born). Now I see what she means. Breath taking! Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to the rest of the story. 
Loved this and made me want to go to Vermont. 
Love these shots. nothing like fall 
Beautiful photography, love the rich colors! 
Wow – these are really great images 
I love that you took your son. So glad you had that special adventure together! : ) The colors are amazing. Magnificent. Fall is so beautiful, isn’t it? What a beautiful blog. Love your picture taking style! 
Both my sons love the camera as much as I do, well, maybe not as much, but it is over the top fun to take them on a shoot. Love your work btw. 
Reads like we were all there with you Kent and the images to accompany are exceptional 
Liking your pics! Cheers 
What a wonderful adventure! I hope to do something very similar with my daughter one day! She’s nine and has a real eye for composition. 
Kent, Looking at these photos just make me want to retire soon and devote my free time to more traveling and photography. Beautiful shots! Egidio
Wow, that’s a BIG statement! Thanks Egidio.  Photography ~ Connecting With Fall Photography ~ Connecting With Fall If you think about it, it’s strange which photographic subjects attract us. I love shooting isolated unique landscapes as much as I love shooting many of the iconic legends that have been shot to death. What draws us to shoot something that we and everyone else... by Kent Weakley show 11 comments 
Great shots, you are lucky you live in a colourful country, back here it more looks like this most times.
As “dreary” as that image looks, it’s still a pretty cool shot. I’m sure you have many beautiful areas to photograph as well, just different.
Kent – they are just beautiful. The saturated colors in that leaf photo are amazing. Do you travel up north for fall shots, or are there any places with foliage like that in your area? 
I am so happy that I discovered your site… clicking through from my3boybarians. I bookmarked you site and look forward to participating in your photo challenge sometime soon. I also teach photography classes… but for beginners. If you have a moment to check out my blog and let me know what you think I am woefully lacking in constructive criticism these days 
Kent, I’ve just recently discovered your website and wonderful photos and videos. I’ve just spent well over an hour clicking through your posts, watching your videos, and enjoying your site. For those of us who are amateur enthusiasts, this site is a treasure trove of great tips and information, as well as inspiration.
Karen, Thank you for your kind words. I’m glad to have you browsing the site. Enjoy! 
I just found your blog and I think it’s wonderful. I agree; nature had a mighty pull, especially this time of year (for me anyway). I prefer shooting more uncommon or forgettable things, but when it comes to my children or nature, there’s a really big exception. The fall colors in all their vividness seem to stand there daring you to only get one shot. I end up getting so many it makes my head spin. And then I’m like, what am I gonna do with all of those pictures?? lol Anyway, great blog. I’ll be back. 
This year you’ll take photos of leaves. Next year you’ll make photographs composed by starting from the shapes the leaves form. The year after that your philosophy will perhaps have changed yet again. And every year you’ll wonder how it is you have to walk so far just to get the *one* leaf with the perfect background separation / orientation for your photographic start-point… At least, I had this thought with thistle-heads and acorns this year too. How come there are so many acorns on trees, yet only a tiny fraction within reach, and none at all on this tree suit my composition? 
The colors are just awesome! Almost makes me want to move out of Florida. (notice I said almost) 
Hi Kent! 
Amazing pictures, kent!  One Last Splash Headed out this morning before going to the airport for one last splash of fall color. Believe it or not we found the most unbelievable autumn leaves in a city cemetery. Respectfully, we captured the last blasts of color, stopped at Blake’s (a local diner joint) for breakfast, and headed for the... by Kent Weakley no comments  New Hampshire Hunt With the fall photo week winding down, we headed west from Maine back to New Hampshire. With a list of towns to visit, we searched high and low for interesting images. The trick was to remove the ordinary every day elements and bring the simplicity of autumn colors to the surface –...
