Task 2 - Autumn

We were asked to experiment with the shutter speed and aperture priority modes with an Autumn theme. Here are some of the shots I came up with:

I had a quick go at creating a vertical panorama to test an idea:

I like the idea of the image, especially due to the blossom tree on the left, however to execute it properly I need to use a tripod and a polarizing filter. I'm also considering trying it with a wide-angle lens to achieve a slightly distorted perspective, an effect I like with vertical panoramas.
