Autumn is the most beautiful season, and not just because of it's rich palette. It's a time wrapped in the glamour of decay, but the air is fresher and crisper than summer, whispered warning of winter's chill. It is that poignant time when things begin to sleep, to die, to dream.

Over the years I've played with a number of different techniques designed to create a pictoral, impressionist effect.

These images utilized vertical movements of the camera, as well as use of my home-grown digi stocking filter and some custom curves.
