Here are the rest of my photos from early October in Colorado.
In early October a cold storm passed through for a day coating the peaks in snow and creating some moody conditions for photographs. I love taking pictures on the edge of a storm where the light can break though the darkness of the storm. I caught some of my favorite photos of the Sneffels Range as the storm cleared out the morning after.
These aspens were another of my favorite places to visit in Colorado. On my first visit I just wanted to find where they were. I took a few photos that day as the rain started to fall.
I timed the following visit to catch the morning backlight coming through the aspen. It turns out lots of other photographers, including two separate workshop groups, had the same idea. Unfortunately, I didn’t get too many photos since I was very conscious about stepping in front of people and getting into their shots. The amazing thing is that I knew three people there and when the workshop group left two more people I knew showed up. Amazing! It was like a party and I had fun. By that time, I had been there a few hours and the light was getting harsh.
On my third visit, there was another workshop group there, but they left early leaving just myself and two other photographers to work the scene. I finally got to explore for compositions in a relaxed atmosphere.
