Autumn's Fire Abstract

I just sold a giant (40” X 60”) print of this abstract image of brilliant fall (autumn) Maple leaves, so I am sharing the memory with you. Standing on a logging road on the edge of the mash in Northern Maine, waiting for Moose can sometimes be quite dull. When the light is right, and the fall (autumn) colours glow like the embers in an inferno……

We adjusted our camera’s exposure to slow our shutter speed to only 1/5 of a second and quickly moved our cameras up and down while making multiple exposures. This was the only keep I made, but I love it, do you?
