Today’s post will be quick and simple. Here we have some Aspens growing in Colorado.
Anytime I see an Aspen I immediately think of the Rocky Mountains. Known for their shimmering leaves, it shouldn’t be much longer until they turn to their signature gold color. They are truly a sight to behold.
Hopefully this year I will get my fix by visiting Flagstaff and catching some of these in all their golden beauty.
Until next time…

It’s your birthday, so what do you do? Go out for a nice dinner? Cake and ice cream? Shopping? Nah. I do what any AZ photog would do…run to the desert and start shooting pictures. I arrived at Lost Dutchman Park just slightly before sunset. I was meeting a fellow photog, Chikku for the evening’s…
I recently had the honor of 2nd shooting the Children’s Action Alliance (CAA) with Holly Baumann Ambuehl . The CAA is a very noble organization dedicated to serving the youth of Arizona. Find out more about them at http://www.azchildren.org. The event was held at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Phoenix. I got there early to…
One of the biggest benefits of belonging to a photography group is you always learn something new. This past SmugMug meeting was no different. Ken Robert (co-organizer of the Meetup) lead the the mini-workshop on using multiple flashes for lighting a model. Ken started the session explaining that just because its pitch dark doesn’t mean…
Typically the weather in AZ has two descriptions, hot or nice. And by hot I mean 115 in August. And by nice I mean 75 on December 18th. Occasionally we have rain but it never lasts more than a day. So you can imagine the surprise and delight when we had fog! Real genuine hard…

I have to agree. I always think of forest, even if I just see a lone tree. Nice shot.
Very nice Chris. I like the shadow play on the tree.
Nice shot, Chris. Yes, we are entering on of the best times of year for foliage. Looking forward to some of your captures.
Very nice shot!
Love to see Aspens turn that golden yellow!
Great light in this capture, Chris, I really enjoyed it!
The Aspens in Breckenridge were beautiful in their fall golden color. Every day we were there, it was more beautiful than the day before. We thought of you while we were there, knowing how you could capture the sights with your camera and your skill.
Very nice capture Chris! Beautiful light and shadow, as mentioned before.
Great shot Chris! I love Aspen Trees. I wish that they grew down here.
Cool trees. Well captured as well! I would love to see them in yellow!
Great shot. I had the same reaction. I grew up seeing these trees every spring in Colorado, and its the first thing I think of (that and that song by John Denver).
Nice picture, great contrast between the white trunk and the green leaves in the background.
Great image, thanks for sharing it.
Got to love the Aspens! I’ll be photographing a cattle drive this weekend up above Crested Butte and the leaves should be beautiful.
So envious.
