Finding fall colors on a gloomy day

A gloomy Saturday morning with periods of light rain.  But I ventured out to see what I could do.  We are on the receding side of the fall color show.  So I tried something a little different.  I used camera movement to create a softer, abstract view of fall.  With a little post-processing magic, I think the resulting images are interesting.

Each of these images was shot with a slow shutter speed, hand held.  As the shutter clicked, I moved the camera from bottom to top.Fall Colors 5 Mile Road-6232Fall Colors 5 Mile Road-6233Fall Colors 5 Mile Road-6240Fall Colors 5 Mile Road-6246
