Near Monarch Pass a couple of weeks ago, I found this grove in the morning. I only had one slide of 8x10 Velvia left.

Tachihara 8x10

Nice composition and beautiful color Michael. Makes me wish I headed toward the San Juan's a couple of weeks ago. I suppose I might consider sharpening/bringing up the contrast on the leaves only just a touch but it's very minor if a nit at all. I like the image very much as posted.

Nice subdued image, not over the top in contrast which really lets the colours shine.

Nice composition and lovely colors in the leaves. You might consider dropping the blue just a bit. Nicely done.

Classic high country aspens. Well done Michael.
