I know that these fall leaves may look vibrant, but overall, the fall foliage in Atlanta seemed to be duller this year and spectacular specimens were harder to find. Colleagues have told me that lots of rain can do that to the colors.
I noticed that many of the leaves seemed to be more opaque and they blocked the sun’s rays more. If the sun can’t get through the leaves, the color will not show as vibrantly. I could be wrong, but that’s what my eyes were seeing.
My good buddy Scott has been trying to get me to go to an EARLY Sunday morning car show that happens in Roswell every month. I dragged myself out of bed at 7 (what?!!) to get there before the crowds came. I am glad that I did because the fabulous cars that arrived were worth the effort.
I have to confess that some of the older cars caught my attention than then ultra exotic an modern supercars that were on hand. The highlight of the day was when I was standing next to Scott’s BMW M-Coupe and overheard a guy tell another “I’d take any car in this lot… even this ugly BMW!” That just made my day. ha!
Lituanians know how to pack many events into one big church service, and I was asked by my friend Paulius of EuroFotoVideo.com to be his videographer for a day. Usually, he and his brother, Justinas, take photos and video at these events, but Justinas was out of town. We recorded a wedding, a baptism and a 3 first communions in the span of a couple of hours.
I’m not going to lie… approaching total strangers to take their photo, may not always be the best approach to getting the shot. But if you are in Piedmont Park on a breezy summer day with nothing better to do with a monster camera in your hands, the idea starts to look like a good one. This couple looked so beautiful together that I almost felt like not intruding. They agreed to have their photo taken and bam, bam, bam the session was over in less than a minute.
Today we woke to drizzly rain that turned into wet snow and then big fluffy flakes the size of down feathers. It was beautiful to see. I did not have my camera with me at the time, but I was later able to capture my house covered in snow and the spectacular sunset.

When I visit my clients in Virginia Highland, I often hear this accordion player. I really like that he brings some life to that corner of the neighborhood. I talked to him for a few minutes and snapped a few shots. The neighborhood would not be the same without him. View the accordion player gallery.
