Photo Comp - October 2018 - 'Autumn Colour'

[RiK]

Hey hey, so the last comp kinda fizzled out with no entries, but I thought rather than abandon it altogether I'd offer up a new topic for those who want to keep it alive..

So, it's that time of year and worth a seasonal topic, so let's have a crack at 'Autumn Colour' eh?

Entries, as always, by the 25th please.

New phone with allegedly halfway decent camera landing tomorrow. Any advice on linking through imgur mobile app? Fell out with pb.

So far it is as close to Autumn we have gotten here. Yesterday at the fields nearby they collected the hay. Everywhere else that is done in the Summer but here it's done in the beginning of Autumn

Summer Ends

From here to month end maybe it will get more Autumnal. I have heard of rain coming towards the 3rd week of October

Autumn Colours

In the Summer the beaches become the colours of bathing suits and towels, parasols, windbreaking and privacy synthetic fences, bars and concessions furniture, safety and rescue items, rental whatevers. The more the heat, the less sand colour we see. In Autumn the beach colours get reduced to sand and sea, with occasional more colourful points.

Thinking firmly inside the box with this one.

I actually tried to find the beautiful proper autumn leaves:

Some strong gusts of wind brought some closely followed by a supermarked plastic bag that didn't look very autumnal

Autumn Leaves

I decided to give up on Autumn trees and leaves and go with a proper raining Autumn sunrise, which here is what Autumn is most known for: rain

Nice one. Everyone’s in the poll. Have at it!

[Truder]

Oh heck, thanks for the votes guys!

Hmm, next topic? Well initially I was thinking something along the lines of "challenging long and shallow DoF" as at the moment I'm loving chasing that thin shallow depth of field bokeh effect but I actually really liked PFVA's Sunrise so I think for November I think "Sunrise, sunsets and horizon vistas" Anything from early morning foggy landscapes, bright, shiny reflective scenes or stunning red sky panoramas.
