Last weekend, I headed to the mountains to view the fall colors. Heading down Ohio Pass, I stopped at several locations to capture the Colorado gold colors!
Strong winds were blowing for much of the day. Below these aspen trees, the wind had blown down several leaves. I found this composition where the leaves fell among some small pine saplings.
There were still plenty of green leaves in the aspen forests. In this one forest, I found one colony of trees with yellow leaves in the middle of the green.
There are a few areas, where some trees have red and orange leaves.
Making my way back up the pass, I found one spot where the forest presented a palette of colors.
At one location, several aspen trees grow at the edge of a scree slope.
I headed out west when a storm started moving in. When the sun broke through a gap in the clouds, it lit up the storm over West Beckwith Mountain.
