Sometimes it feels as if photography is a struggle between the photographer and their preconceived notions about what a photograph should look like. An image about Fall color needs to show a tree in a pristine woodland environment. So, my initial approach was to try to frame this shot in a way that excluded the traffic signs. In the end, though, out of all the images I made, I preferred the one that shows the Fall color in its actual environment. I did exclude the miserable little house that looks like a pizzeria from the frame, however.
