Fall

1/500s (bracketed) f/4.0, ISO 800, 50mm
I don't like cold weather one bit. But spending another fall in Hong Kong, I've realised how much I miss the changing of the seasons. The weather in Hong Kong cools down this time of year but fall and winter temperatures are very mild. I like how refreshingly crisp fall weather can be--especially after a hot summer. It was therefor a welcome change when I travelled to Beijing this weekend. The sky (for the most part) seemed almost an impossibly clear blue and the fall foliage was stunning. I took a walk around the Beida campus but only had a 50mm lens with me. A wider lens would no doubt have been better suited to take in the full beauty of the landscape...
