Another near Glenwood, Conboy Lake area with an Aspen grove showing off color on last sundays frosty morning. I was surprised at all the color still around.
Lovely layers in this image. Looks cold and colorful.

wow, beautiful composition and exposure to show off the subject. There is somewhat of a teal toning to the trees behind the aspens that is a bit distracting.
I'd suggest taking the blue out and making the tone of those background trees more consistent with the olive-ish and brown tones thorughout will help keep the overall tone more consistent and strengthen the aspens even more.

Great contrast of colors here! My only nit is this is very soft. Here are some tips for sharpening and other useful tools:

Great comp here Craig! Thanks for the tip on the color. I was there yesterday, and although the color is just past peak at Conboy it was great at Trout Lake and the Klickitat Gorge.
