Love those reds against the bare trees… are they Winterberries?

    I learned a long time ago that any time you can find “red” in nature, it was pretty special.

That’s pretty special, Scott. Mountain Ash berries and those bleached trunks (?Birch) make a great shot.

  Thank you, Andy…and those bleached trunks belong to a cousin of the Birch…the Aspen…or Quaking Aspen, as they are often referred to here in Utah.

Autumn can be such a warm month in many ways – as exemplified by this image!

  The morning sun added much of the warmth…it was rather chilly in those draws of the mountains. 🙂

A really beautiful shot. I love the colors. And the trees… I could look at them for hours and not have enough.

  Thank you, Shimon…seems like the hike out there is never long enough, either.

I’m with Shimon – what a beautiful composition, and I love the twists and turns of the aspens.

  Thank you, Lynn….and those Aspen really get turned around sometimes…I understand that the weight of the snows on their young bodies/trunks causes these contortions…and then those shapes remain for the duration of their lives.
