More Golden Aspen
For Scenic Sunday, here are more aspen photos from last weekend's hike in Horsethief Park. There weren't many good stands of golden aspen, but I found one.
Here are a couple of close-ups.
I liked the pine tree in the middle of these aspen; in a couple of weeks it will be much more visible.
Finally, here's a wide shot of the valley up which I hiked to see these aspen. To get back to the road, you'd hike down to the base of the pine-covered mountain, turn right, and hike downhill for another half-mile.
For more landscapes and other scenic shots, visit Scenic Sunday.

Beautiful shots of the fall color, Al. thanks for the tips... shoot, I don't have enough technical knowledge to try it... I'll have to keep checking into other formats. :)

Wow Al, these images are beautiful, I LOVE the last one. I love going on hikes with you and seeing your country through your lens. Have a great day. Greetings from Jo, North Africa
I liked therm all but the first one is my favorite. Thats what I call a clear blue sky.
WOW. Autumn is an explosion of colors :-)
Such great SS photos. My favourite is the last; just like a huge avenue :-D
Oro, oro e solo oro che si staglia contro un magnifico cielo blue !
Bellissime foto dorate.
Al, beautiful shots of the colorful trees. The yellow is so bright and pretty.
Wonderful images! I love the golden foliage against the deep blue sky.
Wow that sky and those trees. What beauty. A year in a yoga class couldn't benefit one like a day in your county. Love your colours and the composition. Carla
Beautiful - well worth the hike! I especially like the view looking up from below the tree.
Such lovely golden shots!
Did King Midas come to visit? If only all that gold were real gold.
one of the things I miss so much about Colorado ... the colors of the aspen in the fall. Sigh. Thank you so much for sharing them!!!
beautifully captured!
those colors are crazy cool! beautiful!
Fantastic shots!
Nice shots, all of them. I really like the photo looking up the trunk of the aspen to the top and into the bluest of skies.
Great colour contrast! Photos 1 & 2 are my favourites.
