This building was a 15th century courthouse, but it's now a teahouse in the Welsh town of Llanwrst. The weather has turned cool here, so the leaves are starting to turn bright red for autumn. I thought the mixture of green and red looked great. The diffused light was ideal for this kind of shot because minimal contrast brings out color much more so than direct sunlight. I used a 24-105mm lens to capture this beautiful scene, and my settings were 1/125, f/7.1, and 640 ISO. I purposely avoided including the sky above the distant hills because I didn't want a light area to distract our attention from the teahouse. Typical of many roads in Wales, this 17th century bridge has one lane for traffic in both directions. It's very unnerving driving here.
