Indiana Fall 2023, Part 11 – Backroads and Forest
I continued walking along an Indiana forest hiking trail, stopping frequently to photograph the fall foliage and woodland scenes.

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 10 – Backroads and Forest
Today I drove down backroads heading generally in the direction of a state forest and a wilderness area. Along the way I stopped at a stream and shot a few images of the stream and wooded area around it.
Shortly after getting onto a roadway in a state forest, I parked in a pull out to have a look around. I did not plan to stay long, but wanted to see what this area had to offer in the nearby woods.
Even though it was late October, it was a warm day and mosquitos were buzzing around as I walked down an old forest roadway. Usually, mosquitos are not a problem here at this time of the year, so I had not brought insect repellant and frequent swatting and waving off mosquitoes was a distraction.
As I wandered along the faint roadway, it eventually turned into an official hiking trail. I walked quite a way along this trail. As I got deeper into the woods the mosquitoes became less of a problem, making stopping to shoot photos more pleasant.

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 9 – Autumn in Brown County State Park
This is a continuation of a morning’s shoot in Brown County State Park. All of these images were obtained along roadways through the park.
This wraps up this morning’s shoot. Tomorrow I’ll investigate other area for fall photography in this part of Indiana.
Until then,

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 8 – Autumn in Brown County State Park
After my sunrise shoot in Brown County State Park, I drove around the park, stoping at various locations, walking along the roadway, shooting the autumn color.
I included the roadway in a number of images, mostly as a leading line, but also because the road through the forest just looked so appealing. I hope I have not put too much of the asphalt into these images.
Well, I’m back to my vehicle, so time to move on to another location,

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 7, Sunrise Sequence, Brown County State Park
I went into Brown County State Park again for sunrise photography, this time stoping at one of the overlooks. It was another morning with scattered clouds and good cloud color.
Shooting into the bright sky and getting a good exposure of the foreground fall color is a challenge and no matter how careful one is with the exposure and filter application, post processing of the images is a must.
These sunrise images have varying exposures, filter usage and post processing, yielding variations in the colors and details.
More Brown County State Park fall images next,

Indiana Fall 2023, Part 3 – Backroad Photography
A good way to enjoy fall color in Indiana is via a simple drive along the tree lined roadways, especially the backroads, where there are few houses or commercial facilities to spoil the views. The roads make good leading lines, but I do worry about having too much road in the images, since the most interesting subject is not the roadway.
It is not always possible to find a safe place to pull over off of the roadways, but where possible, one can get fall forest images right beside the road.
Until next time,
Ken
