Colors of Fall
Thursday, October 20, 2011
First off, I had an awesome shoot today with two of my absolutely gorgeous friends down at Union Station in downtown LA. I've never done a portrait shoot inside a building or with an architectural background instead of in a park or something. It was very challenging but so much fun. And we only got yelled at by security once :)
Anyways, the theme this week for the Shades of Autumn challenge is "Orange." It is a bit of a challenge finding fall colors in LA--it's still been in the 80's every day, but I was able to get a few Orange shots.
First, I'm including one from my pumpkin post yesterday, because, well its so very orange :)

This next shot barely has any orange in it at all, but I love just the touch of orange on the edges, reminding me that fall will indeed hit LA (it just takes a bit longer here!)

Here are my other orange shots...

Truly so beautiful Jaymi.
I just love the simplicity of the last one.
Love your pumpkin shot and the flower! They all are simple and sweet.
Yay you for shooting in a public place. Hehe. the only time I did, I got accused of shoplifting and had to empty my pockets to prove it... I was acting sneaky... well, duh! I was trying to take a pic without bring obvious or being noticed! lol. can't wait to see!
You'll be shocked: soon i got some portraits to be sharing on the blog... :) yes, portraits! Lol.
Beautiful shots - your capture of the flower is amazing , looks like there's a purple amethsyt gem that's just been place in the middle.
Oh, those are stunning. Love them all.
Lovely to see these pictures this week. I found orange really tricky too here in the tropics - but you've managed to find some autumn in LA really well!
Love the first and last shots! :) Thanks for joining us in the Shades of Autumn Photo Challenge. I'm so excited about next week's theme: RED! Have a great weekend.
LOVE those little pumpkins!
