I love the trunks of aspen trees just as much as the fluttery yellow leaves! Each one has very unique markings.
We all have our favorite environs---some the mountains, some seashores, some city streets---mine is the midwestern forest.
When we were kids we spent our days in a forest that looked a lot like this one. A small group of us moving through the trees pretending we were on an adventure. We had BB guns and shot at everything that moved.
Today it's the flowers, the birds, the trees, the changing colors of the seasons and as a photographer the beautiful light that often occurs that brings me back.
This is where I have harvested deer and grouse. Where I have sat for hours and cleared my head. This is where I watch my new pup learn about the wild world.

Marmot Falls is not the official name of this waterfall, which as far as I know is not named at all. But a marmot family lives in the rocks below it, so why not name it after them? Teton Canyon, Wyoming, USA, May 2025

I enjoy the interplay of color in the Fall as one clump of aspen turns bright yellow and the next clump stubbornly holds onto its Summer green. _E8U3092
A setting looking to the south-southeast while taking in views through a nearby aspen forest. This was at a roadside pullout along the Alpine Loop Scenic Backway in Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest.
What caught my eye with these Aspens is the way they stood out against the dark clouds. The first shot is how I actually saw it. The second shot is the impressionist version using intentional vertical camera movement.
I absolutely live for Colorado's fall colors. I had not planned to shoot any this year since I live in Portland Oregon; however, I was able to tack on a nice day into the mountains of Colorado this past week and just had an absolute blast shooting in this aspen grove near the ghost town of St. Elmo near Mount Princeton.
With this photo I conclude my autumn series. I have enjoyed going through pictures from the 2017 fall tour through the Eastern Sierra. I wish you all a happy and safe holiday season, and I'll continue to process and publish photos from our past travels. This photo is from our autumn road-trip of California's Eastern Sierra in 2017.

This grove of aspen trees leads directly to the small mountain town of Aspendell, California. Look closely, and you will see homes hidden in the trees. So Aspendell is a fitting name for this community. This photo is from our autumn road-trip of California's Eastern Sierra in 2017.

It's hard to describe the feeling of seeing a scene like this in front of you. The autumn foliage mixed with the clouds and fog created an amazing palette to work with for photography. This location is incredibly popular and for good reason. This composition is certainly not original, but it was a moment that will never happen again like this.......

Autumn in Colorado is incredible because of many things, but one of the top is the weather. It is normally perfect this time of year. Warm days and cool nights. Here is a golden view on a blue sky sunny day with perfect weather upward to the sun in an aspen forest. West Boulder County, Colorado.

A stand of aspen adorned in their fall color of golden leaves fill a panoramic view, with the faint outlines of the Colorado Rocky Mountains behind.
When it's early October and you are almost too late for fall colors ... so Colorado in full fall splendour is still on my bucket list.
I was a little disappointed with the Fall colors in Mono County over the past weekend. Most aspen trees along June Lake loop have already sheded their leaves. The only place where there was still a good amount of Fall color showing was Lundy Canyon. We arrived here late in the afternoon and strolled along this dirt road. The low angle sun produced a nice star burst among the aspen trees. It felt refreshing with the scent in the ambient.
Winter still hanging on out west. While the Aspens look great in the fall. They are made for B&W winter photography!
Quick shot from my trip to Colorado last fall... This little grove of aspen trees was right up the hill from Crystal Lake. I was so amazed by all the aspen trees out there...
We decided to go to the San Juans a couple days ago to see if anything of autumn was left. Almost entirely gone now but we found a few little spots of glory were the embers of autumn were still glowing.
This was up near Bird Mine out of Ouray
I first heard of the Dancing Aspens a few years ago. I'm not typically into visiting spots other photographers favor, but I felt drawn to see this grove of trees since I live only a few hours away.
Everyone I know that has gone has always guarded their location. After reading some blogs and getting some riddle-esque tips from friends, I had a pretty good idea of where they were. Since it was autumn and the leaves would be golden, we headed up to where I thought they would be and quickly found the grove!
There was another photographer there when we arrived. I let him get his shots before I took too many of my own using my classic lenses, my Canon FD 24mm f/1.4 L, Noct-Nikkor, and some ultrawide photos with the modern Sony 4/16-35.
We spent about an hour enjoying the changing light as the clouds passed overhead and taking photos before heading out to find a campsite.
