Fall

Posing at Beida

1/500s (bracketed) f/4.0, ISO 800, 50mm

I don't like cold weather one bit.  But spending another fall in Hong Kong, I've realised how much I miss the changing of the seasons.  The weather in Hong Kong cools down this time of year but fall and winter temperatures are very mild.  I like how refreshingly crisp fall weather can be--especially after a hot summer.  It was therefor a welcome change when I travelled to Beijing this weekend.  The sky (for the most part) seemed almost an impossibly clear blue and the fall foliage was stunning.  I took a walk around the Beida campus but only had a 50mm lens with me.  A wider lens would no doubt have been better suited to take in the full beauty of the landscape...

  1. Great shots of fall. I lived in Phoenix for a while, and while its beautiful, I did miss the change of seasons.

  2. Same - crisp fresh air, wearing a coat... I'm not complaining about the mild weather here in HK but I do miss a proper autumn. Great composition in the first shot. Student one also lovely.
