Herbsttour Hohe Möhr
I decided to take one of the last chances this year to do some bike-photography. I think it's the best time of the year for that, because the colors of the autumn leaves are really great and warm.
I used my Yongnuo YN-568 to brighten the biker. I switched the camera to FP-Synch (or HSS) to be able to shoot at 1/800s. I also used an orange lighting gel filter on the flash because without that the light of the flash would have destroyed the warm look. It was the first time for me to use one of those, but it's a simple trick I've read in a book. I think there are lots of oppurtunities to use gel filters and the whole set with many different colors was really really cheap.
This was captured on the way down of a mountain called "Hohe Möhr". It's in the south-west of the Black Forest and it was the first time I've been there. Really worth a visit.
