Today was a beautiful autumn day, the sun was shining and it was +15C. In the afternoon we decided to go out and take some autumn portraits. So we took out a rake and collected almost all of the fallen leaves we could find and got to work.

The complete set of photos is at http://kansala.kuvat.fi/kuvat/Antti/2011-10-01+Syksypotretteja/ .

For tech geeks:

These shots are taken with one large (~40x100cm) reflector to give some fill light. For the first few shots I used the golden cloth on the reflector and the rest of the set was taken with a silver cloth on the reflector. The lens used was my Nikkor 50/1.4. To keep the lighting stable I shoot fully manual.
