California's Fall Color: A Photographer's Guide To Autumn In The Sierra
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

Find and photograph California's spectacular fall foliage No need to hop on a plane to the East Coast! California has beautiful fall foliage, especially in the Sierra Nevada, which glows red and golden every year with aspens, cottonwoods, dogwoods, maples, and oaks. This compact, lively guide shows visitors where and how to capture the best images of turning leaves in the eastern Sierra, Tahoe, and Yosemite, as well as destinations off the beaten track. Mitchell's advice is suitable for photographers of all levels, whether tourists who want to share their experience with friends or professionals seeking advice for dealing with the special challenges of fall photography. More than a manual of technical considerations, though, California's Fall Color encourages us to be overwhelmed by beauty-to take home an image containing the color but, just as importantly, the essence of that sublime feeling.

I've been a fan of G Dan Mitchell's photography for quite a few years. I've followed his work on social media and was delighted to learn that there was a book in the works on fall color in California. As a fellow photographer, I first appreciate the size of the book which easily fits into my photo backpack. It is full of specific advice about places to find fall color but stays true to Mr. Mitchell's philosophy that photography is about finding your own unique statement or angle when you find yourself out there looking for compositions. The book is a great addition to any photographer's library for the tips and tricks it offers. And when the fall color fades and disappears, Mr. Mitchell's great photography of the fall color will be right there in your library to enjoy while you wait for the fall color season once again.

Just returned from an incredibly successful Sierra fall color trip. G Dan Mitchell's book provided excellent recommendations on how and where to find and photograph magnificent fall color. Read the book and mapped out the areas we wanted to explore. Can't wait to edit my numerous photos. I've already shared a few images and am receiving great reviews from friends. This book is a must have if you are planning a trip to the Sierra's in search of the best fall color. And, if you can't get to the Sierra's, enjoy the book for it's spectacular photos.

Great guide to both good spots for fall colors and tips to improve your photography. Small emought to fit in your camera bag!

Wonderful book - love that it's about respectfully finding your own composition, not just a list of locations and coordinates.
