Juliancolton Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I was up in Smugglers Notch and over to Burlington over the past two days, some nice colors up there and down here. It's so hard to truly capture it in a photo. Yeah, exactly... fall is the trickiest season for photography in my experience. Everything looks beautiful in real life, but the scenery is so dependent on a perfect reproduction of colors that pictures usually miss the mark. I've been focusing more on macro/closeup shots than the typical wide-angle landscapes, which tend to just disappoint this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certain types make the colors pop. Of course Photoshop and digital is today's standard, but there's just something nice about picking the right film for what you're doing, depending on what colors you want to show up the most vivid.

I still do a little bit of 35 mm film here and there, but I definitely couldn't bring myself to rely on it for a shoot. Major props to the folks with the patience needed to shoot film as more than just a level of redundancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see your shots, just have to know your settings and move quickly. On the side It's fun just to play around and experience the manual feel of it. I still say when you enlarge film it beats digital, even more so in the larger formats. The clarity is just incredible and the color is great.

IrishRob17 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 31F for my first subfreezing low of the seasonDid you get a freeze? I was just looking up the definition, I thought you had to be below freezing for at least 4 hours but I see the definition is more vague. It's simply says below freezing for a significant period of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Easily 20s for you this weekend then. 42° here. Going with 30 F sunday and 29 F monday at my house. Walpack, NJ will be around 22F both mornings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's simply says below freezing for a significant period of time. AFAIK falling below 32 verifies a freeze warning, but I was only there for about an hour, and my impatiens are alive and well, so I'm hesitant to call it a "freeze". Should be less ambiguous for most of us over the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Expecting a freeze watch to be issued soon for my area. Hoisted by Upton NWS already. Weekend looks to be the first taste of winter. Temps looks to dip into the middle 20's Sunday and Monday morning. Going to burn wood straight through the weekend starting tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepaJames8602 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Woke up to 36 degrees this am, currently 41 and extremely windy. Today's high is forecasted to be 46, and 44 tomorrow. Forecast low is 26 here tonight, and 25 degrees for tomorrow night. Welcome fall!! Ironically, Binghamton NWS has not issued a freeze warning for my area for tomorrow am, only for the valley cities of Scranton and Wilkes Barre. I've yet to have an offical freeze here as my lowest reading this fall was 34 degrees. There most have been some portions of my county, especially around 2k, that have had a freeze. However, that will change come tomorrow am for most of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishRob17 Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Low of 38 here, Freeze Warning in effect for tonight, not sure I'll get a hard freeze though, time will tell. Bright orange leaves falling down to a lush deep green lawn, a little chill in the air, a number of good games on this afternoon and tonight, gotta love October. Enjoy it everyone!

I have a lot of trees around me with plenty of leaves still which is why I'm thinking this way. If I was out in an open field I might feel differently.

If the conditions are right though, I don't usually do too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
