Hey Morris, everyone I have met in Colorado talks about the Dallas Divide and now I can see why. Stunning, a classically beautiful image. The vertical layers are really cool, from the scrub oak to snow capped peak. Nice, really nice. Can't wait 'till next fall.

That's one amazing view, Morris. Impressive scenery and image. I especially like the auburn layer across the bottom.

My favorite scene in that area! This is gorgeous! Nice drama with the stormy clouds around the peak too.

Great atmospherics going on here Morris! Those aspens really add a nice splash of color and contrast. The larger version is really nice!

Another iconic image of the changing seasons. The golden leaves and light dusting of snow give this the somber beauty of the knowledge of what's to come.

I'd crop a bit off the top, that's about it.
A real stunner!

This is wonderful, Morris! The golden glow of the sunlit aspens is a great contrast to the stormy sky and the snowy heights.

Beautiful waves of color Morris. The majestic peaks make a wonderful backdrop and contrasts the color well.

An awesome grand autumn scenic, Morris! You took advantage of the even lighting. The colors
are lovely, and the clouds create a nice mood. The larger rendition is spectacular. I should think
that this would make a great large print.

What a grand landscape, great depth and interesting elements throughout. Especially like the lighting on the yellow foliage. This is special and should be printed large.
