YouNews: Fall Colors in Eastern Iowa

Using backlighting to bring out the colors and textures of leaves on a maple tree is an effective technique in photographing fall colors. Photographed Tuesday, Oct. 2, 2012, in Walford, Iowa. The use of selective focus, using a wide aperture and framing through foreground leaves, makes your subject standout from the background. (Jim Slosiarek/The Gazette-KCRG)
