Fall Color - Crested Butte...
Here's a few fall color shots I thought turned out well - this first near Ohio Pass.

...from west of Kebler Pass, about 10 minutes from sunset.

Thanks, Ken for sharing. Some really nice work :biggrin: . I especially like the close up shot, it has a nice rhythm to it

Beautiful series, Ken. I especially liked the 2nd and 3rd ones, but the last one is very good as well.

Wow, all great but I really like the tree-framed composition of the "west of Kebler pass" shot.

Nicely done. It looks like you found some nice color under the Beckwiths. I especially like the third image, and the second one too. Makes me envious as well!

Nice! I especially like the last/closeup one.

Hi Ken, I was at Kebler on Sept 20th right before the snow storm. All was still green. I like the close up shot best. Very Nice. Joe Smith

Thanks for the comments!

I have to reveal a secret...there were a group of us trying in vain to find just the right position to capture it before the sun disappeared, but there was a willow branch right smack in the middle of the perfectly-framed scene. There's actually a photographer just out of sight below the picture, holding that darned branch out of the way!
