Lake Tahoe Fall Colors, 3 Photos Shot Today

avatar

Scouted for fall colors today. It's definitely not peaking in Tahoe but there are still some nice areas with little spots of yellow. After doing some exploring and 4x4ing, I ended up stopping at Kings Beach, Lake Tahoe for these. Most leaves in the area are still pretty green so I'm hoping they stay on the trees during this weekend's forecasted snow storm. Autumn scenery should be looking great around here soon!

All shot with a Canon 5DS R and a 24-105mm lens. A polarizing filter was used on the front of the lens.

How are the fall colors looking where you live?

A polarizing filter helps with that. The blue and yellow colors get more vivid and contrasty. A touch of photoshop work too...

What fabulous shots and I hope the snow doesn't knock down to many leaves so you can get more fall shots before more snow comes

have a good weekend

Thank you! Yeah, I think most of the leaves are still green enough to make it through the storm but mother nature still shocks me sometimes. Have a great weekend too!

Whaaaaaaaaaat?! I remember your videos around the lake and it was all snowy and frozen and winter is coming run away!

I think it's the first time I see it so full of color and sunny, this global warming thing is indeed weird (joke)

Haha! Yup, shit is weird but the weather is always weird up here. It's supposed to snow a bit this weekend... Hopefully it will warm up again before winter really hits but every year that snow thing happens, lol.

Cool. Looking forward to seeing what you get! We got a little snow last night so I'm hoping leaves get more yellow instead of turning brown...
