10 EASY CANON TIPS! AUTUMN SKILLS SPECIAL

Hone your camera skills for the most photogenic season of the year with our top Canon pro photographer’s tips

- 

Autumn can come and go in the blink of an eye, so it pays to be prepared with ideas and inspiration for when the trees turn golden and your breath starts to mist the air. This is the season that has inspired artists and poets for centuries – and with the help of your Canon camera, you can squeeze every warm hue, every texture, and more than a modicum of mellow fruitfulness from Autumn’s constantly changing conditions. From colorful landscapes to stunning shots of local wildlife, it’s a truly great time of year to flex your photography muscles.

As the days get shorter, the best light for shooting, both early and late in the day, is at a more civilized hour. This makes it an ideal time to capture some lovely family portraits, using the vibrant foliage in forests as backdrops.

Late Autumn storms are wonderful for the intrepid landscape photographer who seeks dramatic conditions. However, if you’re less keen on unpredictable weather, the season’s bounty of rich fallen leaves can be taken indoors for some interesting projects.

So Autumn really is the ideal season to get creative with and hone your photo skills…
