If you talk to any Korean over the age of 40, they will no doubt tell you about the “4 seasons of Korea” and look a bit astonished when they realize that places like Canada also have four seasons as well. This concept comes up in a lot of older textbooks and even my Korean language books as well. While it may seem strange, Korea does not disappoint when it comes to the seasons. Fall in Korea is beautiful and that is why so many people are proud of the season here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beauty of fall is that there is a vibrant burst of colour before the long grey period of winter. I love the colours of fall, especially at the Buddhist temples around Korea. The trick to capturing great colours is to really make good use of the light. I find that you can stretch the shooting times out a lot more on the clear days. Not to mention that the bright mid-morning light often works best for these shots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 3 C’s: Contrast, Colour, and Creativity<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

I find that beginner photographers often are overwhelmed by the scenes that they see. They end up just “documenting” the scene rather than really diving in and exploring it. That is why I try and stick to the 3 C’s when I go out. This keeps me from just “spraying and praying” when I take photos. When you are looking for certain concepts or ideas, you will produce better images in the end. You will find yourself looking <\/strong>for shots rather than hoping<\/strong> that you “something<\/em>” at the end of the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Contrast<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Look for areas of light and dark to really make the scene pop. You can enhance the contrast in Lightroom after, but try and find the contrast on your own to train your eye. This is where harsher light may actually help you. Use the leaves to hold back some of that light and see what the shadows do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Colour<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This can be overdone at times and I am no stranger to this at all. However, do not let that stop you from seeking out the colours that attract us all to this great time of the year. The best way that I find is to either hit the peak season or combine the 3 c’s like I mention in this article. Try choosing a single colour to focus on and see where that takes you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Creativity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I love seeing what people come up with during this time of year. Don’t just document what you see but try to express your vision. Basically, use your imagination and create images that express something more than “I was here” and you will be off to a great start. Look for new angles or try different apertures to isolate images. Think about what the scene is really saying to you and try to capture an image that show that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n

The Bottom Line<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Fall is a great time of year and you should try your best to show your version of it. You don’t have to be on the Cabot Trail in Nova Scotia to capture a remarkable autumn shot. You just have to explore your world as I have done here in Korea. Think about what this season means to you and what tools and techniques you can use to express that vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
