leaves changing color (colour)

As autumn deepens, the trees are painted with beautiful autumn colors. Why not go out to see the foliage and enjoy the scenery unique to this season? Not only can you stroll among the trees dyed red and yellow, but capturing that moment in photos also makes for wonderful memories. Photographing autumn leaves, whose appearance changes with the light, weather, and time of day, is truly a once-in-a-lifetime art.

The best times for photography are the soft light of morning and the golden glow of evening. Visiting during these hours captures the vivid colors of the leaves and preserves a magical atmosphere in your photos. Additionally, photographing the reflection of trees in rivers or lakes allows you to express the beauty of nature in a more three-dimensional way.

Discover your favorite spots and new places to enjoy autumn foliage all your own. This fall, let's encounter scenery that will stay with you forever.
