A streak of yellow fall foliage runs its way down the mountainside surrounded by lush green forest in Pakistan’s wilderness. And that made this the perfect candidate for a B&W.

Yellow fall foliage is surrounded by green pines on a mountainside. Every color besides yellow is decolorized, resulting in a black and white image with the autumnal foliage being highlighted further by the lack of color elsewhere in the photo.

It is rare to get that perfect meeting of fall foliage and fresh snowfall, and it’s even rarer for that to happen when you’re visiting an ancient village.

Old homes line the foreground, and a vast, yellow forest lies across a river from the village. Fresh snowfall covers the pine trees on the mountainsides above the fall foliage, and the skies are moody with a light bit of snow falling down.

Lush yellow forests in Pakistan looking like a watercolor painting.

A yellow forest lies on a mountainside, half in sunlight and half in shade created by the vast mountain. The mountain is dry and overlooks the forest area which is situated in an oasis.

One of the most serene, beautiful places I’ve ever been. This wilderness is truly epic.

Somewhere in northern Pakistan.

A golden forest at peak Autumn foliage sits at the end of a winding, rocky road at the bottom of the image. A massive, snow-covered peak towers over the aspen forest, and the weather is clear, sunny, and beautiful, disguising the freezing temperatures.

Fall is the most majestic time of year, and I’m gutted that it’s ending.

A batch of fallen, sunlit yellow leaves lie on top of an old, rusted metal roof. The rooftop overlooks a historic, rustic village with mountains and yellow forests in the background. The weather is sunny and clear with blue skies.

Winding my way on my motorcycle through a serene (but frigid) valley in northern Pakistan’s wilderness. Beautiful but indescribably cold.

A turquoise-blue river winds its way in an S-curve through the bottom of an alpine valley in northern Pakistan. It is peak foliage, and a grove of yellow trees lines the left side of the image, while snowy peaks drape both sides of the shot. The weather is sunny, beautiful, and cold.

Stunning scenery turning to peak foliage in Pakistan’s far north. It doesn’t look cold, but it was absolutely freezing, especially on a motorcycle!

#travel #photography #sony #landscapephotography #fall #art #mountains #autumn #foliage #nature #landscape #pakistan
Overlooking a village in the center of a valley with snowy mountains flanking the sides, a forest sporadically winds its way through different parts of the village. Many trees are at peak fall foliage and gleaming yellow, while others are still green. The weather is cloudy, but there is still plenty of sunlight hitting the peaks and the temperatures are freezing cold.

More proof of how stunning Pakistan is this time of year. There’s very few places where you can see golden forests with mountains this big dominating the landscape.

A turquoise river snakes its way through the bottom of a remote valley surrounded on both sides by yellow forests at peak fall foliage. Gigantic, snow-covered peaks loom in the distance. The weather is bright and sunny, masking the reality of how cold the temperatures are.

Fall is the greatest season everywhere, but it is at its best in northern Pakistan, no questions about it.

A massive, pyramid-shaped mountain towers over yellow forests during peak fall foliage. The forest is split into two by a path winding its way through the middle of tub image. The weather is gray and cloudy, leading to muted colors.

From a quiet afternoon spent at a monastery in the mountains of Korea. Peak foliage here really is incredible, and I was lucky to see this place as empty of visitors as it was.

A Buddhist temple on the right side of the image is surrounded by vibrant fall foliage all around. The courtyard in front of the temple is empty, quiet, and peaceful. There aren’t any visitors in sight, and the weather is cloudy and grey.

Looking into a stunning yellow forest somewhere in rural Korea.

Bright yellow leaves hang off a skinny tree in the foreground during peak Fall foliage, and the background looks deeper into the forest covered in yellow leaves. The lighting is bright and the weather is sunny, and the foreground is in sharp, detailed focus.

It’s been awhile, but Autumn deserves a showcase because it is undeniably the best season of them all.

Taken in the courtyard of an abandoned Buddhist temple in rural Korea.

A grassy courtyard is covered in vibrant, yellow leaves freshly fallen from Aspen trees at an abandoned Buddhist temple in rural South Korea. The focus is on the foreground and slowly fades out to the fence lining the courtyard in the background. The weather is sunny and the lighting is bright.

This is probably the most spectacular place in Vietnam, and photos just can’t do justice to the massive scale of this place.

The tiny tour boat in the river helps, though!

#photography #Vietnam #mountains #sony #scape #nature #landscape #river
A deep green river sits at the bottom of a gigantic gorge. The river is surrounded by lush, green mountains on all sides, and some patches of farmland lie along the descending slopes. The weather is moody and dreary with lots of clouds, but the skies are still clear enough to see everything is

Winding my way down an old dirt road in Vietnam.

Little did I know that just around the corner, I’d have to ride my motorcycle though a herd water buffalo that were just as shocked to see me as I was to see them. 😅

A dirt road winds its way across the image from right to left, hugging a lush, green mountainside in the wilderness of northern Vietnam. Jungle-covered peaks loom behind the road on a bright, sunny day with only a few clouds in the sky.

This is one of Vietnam’s most distinct roads, and while roads like this look cool, they are not as fun to ride on 😅 those blind corners and falling rocks are a nightmare to deal with.

A squiggly road snakes its way up and down a mountain in the wilderness of northern Vietnam. The photo is taken from a lookout overlooking lush, jungle-covered mountains and a lone tree overhangs the landscape on the right side of the frame. The green hills are bathed in sunlight and a few clouds are visible in the distance.

Riverside in the epic wilds of northern Vietnam. What an awesome spot, even with the dreary weather.

An emerald green valley sits at the bottom of a massive valley with towering rice terraces and cliffs on either side of the river. Bright orange dirt is riverside in the foreground, and lush green peaks loom in the distance. The weather is misty and moody, but still clear enough to see into the distance.

Taking in the massive, sheer canyon of Ma Pi Leng Pass along the Nho Que river.

We got lucky with how empty this boat was: literally only three people on board so we had this entire place to ourselves!

Ha Giang, Vietnam.

An empty, bright blue and yellow tour boat sits on the edge of a green river at the base of a massive, narrow canyon in northern Vietnam. The canyon walls are draped in lush, deep green trees and vegetation. The weather is cloudy and moody.

You can’t control the lighting when shooting outside, and it really killed me that the weather was so dreary when I visited, but I didn’t mind. Being drenched in rain felt a little redundant.

Ban Gioc, Vietnam.

A tall waterfall descends across several rocky tiers into a green-colored pond in the jungles of Vietnam. There are several streams of water falling into the pond, and the weather is dreary and rainy.

Another one of Vietnam’s winding, unreasonably photogenic mountain roads.

Somewhere in Ha Giang Province.

Trekking down one of northern Vietnam’s most spectacular hiking paths. It’s only a few kilometers long and doesn’t take too much time to finish, but the scale of this place is hard to beat.

A path follows a steep cliff edge on the left side of the frame, and lush, jungle-covered sheer mountains tower over the right side of the image as the path follows the cliff edge into the distance. The skies are grey and cloudy.

A lone fisherman rows his way down a river in the wilderness, looking for his catch of the day.

Somewhere in Cao Bang Province, Vietnam.

A fisherman stands on his boat and rows down a river in the wilderness of northern Vietnam. The surrounding hills are a lush green color and covered in jungle, and the water is a similar color. Higher mountains loom in the background and the sky is covered in misty, grey clouds.

One of the most iconic stretches of the Ha Giang Loop. And that moody, misty weather.

I’ll be honest, as photogenic as these loopy roads are, they are not fun and often dangerous to ride on.

The famous Ban Gioc Falls located on the Vietnam-China border. One of the most breathtaking waterfalls you’ll ever see, even if it is pretty packed with visitors these days.

The tiered Ban Gioc waterfalls in Vietnam on a misty, rainy day. The foreground is the base of the falls, which are covered in lush, green jungle and the water pouring down at a powerful volume. Mountains surround the falls on both sides.

Riding my motorcycle down a tiny, remote road somewhere in Cao Bang province, Vietnam after losing my way wandering for a few hours. I’ve rarely been so happy to get lost.

Golden Hour on the edge of a tiny village somewhere in northern Vietnam. Easily one of the most picturesque places I’ve ever been.

Lush green mountains of northern Vietnam are bathed in golden light at sunset. Taller, steeper mountains loom in the background while a path and a field of crops are present in the foreground near the bottom of the image. The weather is clear and there is barely a cloud in the sky.
