A Collection of Autumn Photos to Inspire You

September 25, 2014 by Darlene Hildebrandt

Updated: December 30, 2021

This is another new feature I’m starting here on Digital Photo Mentor – an image collection.

Every now and then (once a month) I’ll share a selection of images meant to give you some inspiration. So use it however you want, bookmark it, share it on social media, get ideas from it, or just say some “ooohs” and “awwws” and get out and go take some photos of your own!

Given the current season in the northern part of the world, for this collection I dug up some autumn photos. The colors are so vibrant and rich and it’s a great time to go photograph and be in nature. Enjoy!
