Top: This image was taken with a D90 using an 18-105mm lens @ 18mm. The exposure was at 1/160 of a sec @ f/11 with ISO 200. I also used an SB-600 to properly expose the foreground, while keeping the sky from being blown out. I found this tree in front of this, what seemed to be, abandoned building to be rather haunting. The tree had its own creepiness to it, but combined with the falling leaves, and the building in the background, it made for a great composition on the tail of Halloween.
Bottom: This image was taken with a D90 using an 18-105mm lens @ 28mm. The exposure was at 1/160 of a sec @ f/11 with ISO 200. This was trail/driveway that led up to the building in the previous photo. The tree cover provided just enough shade to add to the fall feel of things. The leaves which had fallen on the ground displayed such a golden color, it added a feel of life to the otherwise dark nature of the composition.
