Greenish Autumn Foliage Cheating

 Having a Fall foliage autumn that's too greenish?

Yeah! I hate that too! 2012 & 2011 were like that!

Why bother doing it in Photoshop, when you could do a simple easy way to cheat on your photos that's LOW-TECH and CHEAP?!

 The trick is a gradient filter. You can usually buy them in blue or orange. They wee originally for film cameras, but you can still buy them VERY CHEAP on Amazon.com!

I think I paid a few dollars for each one. Vintage are better, if you can. Don't fret if the filter is a different size than your lens. You can just get an adapter for like $1-2!

The gradient filter is great because you can swivel them, and get a more organic look!

You can see the real colors fade into the more saturated reds.

Or, if it's a cloudy day, you can make it look brighter, sunnier, or like a sunset.

It's nice to mess around with!

I've also used them for stage/show events.

And, they can also be used with black & white, if you want some colors to show more than others in the grays cale tones, like the sky.
