If there ever was a center stage it can be found at this pond. Although we had no intention of camping today, we did apply plenty of slack. How many of these spots can be found in the Rockies? Even more than idiots from the southeast can light on fire. We suffered that near Nederland this summer. One of that crowd pleaded guilty and received 17 years for the destruction, How will mama ever visit from down home? Here is another detail shot of the retreat at Smith Lake where we settled to breathe in the fall at the fire ring. This angle screams autumn. Sheesh, I had to get up and move over a few feet to snap this. This is another in my return to another aspen autumn series and boy did I make up for lost time this fall. I snapped the bold tones found in the saturated reflections of the pond here on this detail shot by the fire ring at the less-than-official camp spot. Thumbs up, way up.
Autumn here in the high country was encountering it's year-end struggle at Smith Lake and making its stand. We mounted yet another foray into the high country on that day past. The pond reflections tolled fall's end near the Great Divide where the Sasquatch likes to bathe. Phil and I were sniffing the perfumes and surrendering to this copse of pond, pine and aspen from the camp at the fire ring, atop the Smith Lake trail off Taylor Mountain Road. We squeezed off Taylor Road to park. The one thing we didn't encounter was Sasquatch himself. We had traveled the Peak to Peak Highway north toward Allenspark and turned right onto Taylor Mountain Road. Here, east of Allenspark and west of Taylor Road, we found semi-flat rocks for perches by the oft-used fire ring. The wagon road through the autumn aspen, over here is nearly apparent but yet requires a degree of imagination.
In the old days, a lot of timber was cleared for housing, fences and fuel but we could not confirm much had been removed around here even though there was the trace road over here. There would have been a lot more timber in a lot more accessible areas close to housing. You should be able to see a trace of road west from Taylor Road on Google maps. Taylor Road is an access to many wonderful high country treks to magnificent higher country views. We are paralleling the Rocky Mountain National Park to the west. Atop Taylor, one should get a wonderful view of the Divide and Rocky Mountain National Park. I was up Longs Peak but didn't forget anything I have to go retrieve. Whew!
We traveled the Peak to Peak Highway north toward Allenspark and turned right onto Taylor Mountain Road. Here, east of Allenspark and west of Taylor Road, we found semi-flat rocks for perches by the fire ring at the pond. The wagon road through the autumn aspen, over to here is nearly apparent and skimpy. Egad... Smith Lake, what a spot to get resouled.
Those rocks scattered across the pond propped up the Smith lake terrain and created terrific reflections. Great views abound everywhere along the trek and especially from the camp fire ring, the spot of my accidental pano I posted earlier. Taylor Road is an access to wonderful treks in the high country to magnificent views of much higher country. We are paralleling the Rocky Mountain National Park and Indian Peaks Wilderness Area off to the west. Atop Taylor, one should be able to spot climbers in colorful jackets on their final leg up the south pitch of Longs Peak. Sometimes climbers founder on the big notch between Meeker and Longs and on the ledge traverse around the back of Longs. A fellow recently slipped on ice and met his master there in the last week. That particular master skipped a full level of logic.

Last holy week, I had a chance to shoot IR on my last day in bacolod hoping for that perfect light. With dark clouds and possible rain, it poured on me after 2 frames. But after patiently waiting for 30 minutes, the sun was up again and I had less time because it was already 4PM.
My passion for infrared continues as I had visited The Ruins last year (http://paulbanday.multiply.com/photos/album/93/The_Ruins_-_A_Century_of_Existence) and I was too excited to shoot it again, now in a different approach. Enjoy Viewing!!!
