Great Fall Weekend

This past weekend had great weather - mid-70s on Saturday and mid-60s on Sunday, with plenty of sun to go around. On Saturday, we went for a hike in Mass Audubon's Broadmoor conservation land in Natick. Found some great foliage scenes there and awesome lighting. On Sunday, we managed to catch the closing of the Head of the Charles Regatta in Boston

Fall Sunrise on the River

Spent a few hours last weekend over in Newton on the Charles River at sunrise. There are plenty of trails that run along the water through the woods. Some great color at this time of year.

 

Sunrise on the Charles

Got up extra early at the completely unnecessary hour of 5AM to make my way over to the Cambridge side of the Charles River. Bought a couple of new camera filters this week and wanted to give them a  try. These were taken near the Cambridge Hyatt right over the BU bridge.

Long Overdue Long Exposure Fall Shots

These shots from late fall are much overdue... so here they are, at the end of the year. Many of the blurred water shots were done with a long exposure time (.6 seconds or longer) and stopped down aperture (f/22), the image stabilizer on my lens was helpful but a tripod would be recommended.
