Tuesday Photo Challenge – Fall

Welcome to week 176 of the Tuesday Photo Challenge!

After a week of living the City life, I think it’s time to go back to Nature for this week’s theme. As Autumn approaches in the Norther Hemisphere, I thought it might be interesting to go for a theme that riffs on that concept with Fall. In the American version of the English language the season of Autumn is often called Fall. What I like about this theme is that the word fall can be taken into other directions, from trip and fall to Victoria Falls and many stops in between.

So, I’m leaving the choice of direction squarely in your hands and create minds and eyes! Mostly, just go out and have fun with this one!! Can’t wait to see where you take this!

Here’s a more abstract approach to the lovely colors…

Muted Fall Tones

As many of you are aware, I like to experiment in my photography and, from time to time, will try something different to get more of a sense of the moment and surroundings, rather than a purely representational capture. By taking the aperture down to f/22 and going out of focus, there appears this rather soft sense of color over structure…

The full rules of this challenge are in TPC Guidelines, but here’s the tl;dr:

  • Write a post with an image for this week’s topic
  • Please tag your post with fpj-photo-challenge (if you’re not sure about how tags work, please check out this WordPress article about tagging posts)
  • Create a pingback link to this post, so that I can create a post showing all of the submissions over the week (note: pingbacks may not appear immediately, as my site is set up to require approval for linking to it; helps against previous bad experiences with spamming)
  • Have fun creating something new (or sharing something old)!!

Be careful not to fall and have everything fall into place for your photo!!

    I’ve gone with an easy interpretation – waterfall – but with a hint of autumnal colours.https://travelwithintent.com/2019/09/03/cascading-beauty-irarfoss-waterfall-iceland/

    That’s a beautiful photo! Thank you for sharing your tips on how you captured it. We’re just starting to see trees turn colors where I live, so I’ll give those tips a try soon!

      Thank you, Shelley. Love your post, although I’m not convinced that you got a lot of work done 🙂

        Thank you – you’re right, not a lot of work was done!!

    Too early for leaves to turn here. We have a month of great weather, hopefully.

    In California, there is no Fall to be seen till November, so I feel strange posting a clear mid Fall image. This one portrays kind of a beginning, and this is even too early. The weather is still in the 90ties here:) still in the 90ties here!

    Nice and colourful. We don’t get these colours over most of India. We are now at the end of the rain-fall season. But instead of giving you a seasonal photo, I’m going for something that lasts ages: a geological fall.

    Beautiful leaves. Very few signs of fall in the trees so far, but there are signs of the approaching autumn. https://mariawijk.wordpress.com/2019/09/04/are-you-ready-to-move/

    1. jansenphoto Avatar

      Awesome post! I always watch to see when birds migrate to get an idea of how fast the weather is changing…

  37. […] The orange seed pods of Chinese Lantern plants.Black seeds bursting out of their containers.These star anise-like seeds certainly caught my attention. A city gardener told me they were called Clerodendron or Glory Bower, very fragrant in the summer and a tad invasive as they were popping up everywhere!Two types of bursting Magnolia seed pods. I don’t think these seed pods appear every year – I have been keeping an eye out and have never found them again. Macro of Barberry bush seeds. The edible berries show up mostly in the summer. Less edible ones, at least for humans, appear in the fall. These round black berries were found in autumn at Queen Elizabeth Park. Leycisteria have bamboo-like stalks with plum flowers and red berries. One day in late October I heard a chirp fest outside my door and it turned out to be a bunch of small birds having a feast of the berries. By the time they were finished there wasn’t a single berry left on the plant.A burgundy Calla Lily going to seed.Another shot of the same Calla Lily.Not the best photos but the seed pods I am most proud of. After several years my Dwarf Pomegranate has finally put out two tiny pomegranates, and one of them has split revealing the seeds inside!The round part of the pomegranate is about the size of a dime; I don’t know if those teeny seeds are edible!More of Frank’s Tuesday Photo Challenge: Fall.

    I do like your experiment and I guess you could say I went out on a bit of a limb for my response. To me, this owl has nice fall colours that it is wearing: https://wp.me/p2owKx-1et
    I also talk about making the transition to fall in terms of my work routine. Thanks for the challenge.

        Thanks Frank! Gosh, do I have to bag all the time for a comment on my actual post? Is that so much for you?

      2. jansenphoto Avatar

        Hi Tatiana, as an FYI, it is rare that I post a comment on a post when I’m doing the round up, as I’m trying to do it as quickly as possible; additionally, WP forces me to re-login regularly in order to comment on people’s posts directly.

        I’m sorry that you feel offended by this.

        Regards,

        Frank

        I know that, but it looks like everybody with less than average posts gets tens of likes, while I hardly can get any. I made this post specifically for your challenge and I don’t get any recognition ☹️ May I ask why??

      4. jansenphoto Avatar

        Tatiana, I took a quick closer look at your blog and didn’t see a way for people to follow your blog. Am I just not seeing it, or is it not there? That would make it easier for people to regularly get updates on your posts.

        Hope this helps.

        Hi Fred, that button is only for WP.com websites. Mine is on .org = self hosting. However, upon your advice I added a widget for people to subscribe to my blog via e-mail. I believe it’s something similar. I’ll see. Thank you for the suggestion 🙂
