At the end of last week, i spent two afternoons on the top of a little rocky hill just over our village.
It offers a nice overview on the surrounding landscape and for strategic reasons, it was chosen one thousand year ago to build a castle.
Today we can only see two or three parts of some impressive big walls. You can have a look at this image posted about one year ago to have a better idea of the place.
When i went there last week, i was most interested in the autumn trees, mostly lime trees, than by the old stones.
Fall colours were particularly beautiful in the early evening light but as often, the place was really windy. Although i could get a few nice classical autumn scenes during the short times with no wind, many images were ruined by non aesthetics blurred leaves.
So, i decided to go for more abstract images like my Autumn in the forest posted a few days ago or like this one.
If Autumn in the forest was done with a long lens and moving rapidly the camera during the exposure, i used a really different method for this Autumn sky.
I took a wide angle lens, put the camera on my tripod looking up to the sky through the leaves, selected the multi exposures mode and took three shoots rotating slightly the tripod head between each.
I just had to work a little on contrast when i processed the raw file to give this final image.
