Kouyou(紅葉), Autumn leaf color is a phenomenon that affects the normally green leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs by which they take on, during a few weeks in the autumn season, one or many colors that range from red to yellow. The phenomenon is commonly called fall colors and autumn colors, while the expression fall foliage usually connotes the viewing of a tree or forest whose leaves have undergone the change. One of the famous spot for Kouyou view is Mount Takao located about 1 hour from Tokyo by train.
Went there with other Malaysians for photoshoot. Along with me at the time are 10-24mm, 17-50mm and my brand new 70-300mm Tamron. Arrived at 10 and we split into 2 groups, hiking group and cable car group. And of course, I'm in the hiking group. Took about 3 hours to reach the top and the view from up there is just marvelous. Too bad its a bit cloudy that day so we can't see Mount Fuji from the top. Because all of people with me at the time are photographers I learned a lot of things from them. Tips and technique etc. Took some time to go back down to the station, I wish they have a slide from top to bottom there =)
Oh btw I've made my first Time Lapse too at the top of Mount Takao
