Red Vines

© 2016 Thousand Word Images by Dustin Abbott

Here’s a “tasty” image for you today of some Red Vines. No, not the candy, I’m afraid. These vines love to grow along chainlink fences, but create the most delightful subjects come autumn. It’s not just the brilliant red color (though that helps), but also the great contrast of the dark fence that creates a great amount of contrast. Though the focus system of the 5D Mark IV doesn’t seem radically different on paper, it is actually vastly improved in every area, and it’s a treat to finally have DPAF on a full frame body.  P.S. Using a circular polarizer (correctly) in a situation like this really helps the colors to pop!
