Autumn Art

This is my collection of great Autumn and Halloween inspired art. A collection made simply because this is my favorite season. And there are so many amazing photos and drawings that capture what I love so much about this time of year. :)

~*~Photography Quotes~*~

"It's suprisingly difficult to get useful feedback on your photographs. "That's pretty" or "I love her eyes" are nice to hear, but aren't going to improve you as a photographer. Whenever I ask people to critique my work (and when I critique others) I ask the to complete these sentences:
"This photo makes me think of...",
"Technically, I think...",
"What I like about this photo is...",
"If I were to improve anything, I would...", ECT

By using a simple framework, people are forced to give feedback you can actually use. "
-Haje Jan Kamps


"No place is boring, if you've had a good night's sleep and have a pocket full of unexposed film."
-Robert Adams

"It's weird that photographers spend years or even a whole lifetime, trying to capture moments that added together, don't even amount to a couple of hours."
-James Lalropui Keivom

"When you photograph people in colour you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in B&W, you photograph their souls!"
-Ted Grant

"[Photography] makes you see the world rather than just look at it."
-Author Unknown

"There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs."
-Ansel Adams

"A photograph is memory in the raw."
-Carrie Latet

"Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still."

"To me, photography is an art of observation. It's about finding something interesting in an ordinary place... I've found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them."

"You cannot depend on your eyes if your imagination is out of focus"

-Mark Twain

About the Photographer:
My name is Amy.
I looooooooooooooooove to take pictures.
I use a Nikon D5000 dSLR, and it's like an extension of my arm. :]

I've been known to be easily excited, quite a grammar nazi, and have a horribly short attention span. I'm also one of those "hopeless romantic" types. It's taken a lot to get to where I am now [with love and life in general], so I'm a believer of anything's possible.

I enjoy movies, writing, learning languages [I'm currently trying to learn Japanese], cooking, traveling; lots of things. You could say I've done some "soul-searching" as of late. I know I've loved photography for a long time, I just haven't been able to see that it's my passion until recently.

I was lucky to have traveled as much as I did when I was younger. My early years were quite an adventure. I only wish I had the bug for photography then as much as I do now. But I hope to re-visit everywhere I've gone, and then some. I want to travel the world and capture it through photographs. :heart:

:iconroyalroller:
Okay, so this gave me another idea for pictures. Okay, well, minus the lense cap . . . but I think you get the idea anyways.

~ Remember, there is always one little girl out there who wants to be you! :love:
:iconshinji-sama:
That's a pretty picture. ^^ I'm not sure if I like the lense cap in there, though... I think it fits with the theme of relaxing activities, but I think it's distracting from the softness of the rest of the photo.

To wish you were someone else, is to waste the person you beautifully are.
:]
:iconroyalroller:
That's what I was thinking. I'd love to do something with the rest of it, but let's leave out the lens cap, okay? Lol.

Lol. I don't even have a lens cap that we could put in. So I think we're okay. x3
