… on a gray, overcast day in the forest at my university.

Aspen Sky: Cottonwood Pass, Colorado

If you’re a photographer in Colorado, it is required (perhaps by law) that you have two shots in your portfolio. First, you need the fall Aspens looking up at the sky shot. I haven’t nailed that one yet, but I did get this last week up on the Buena Vista side of Cottonwood Pass near Cottonwood Lake.

More Fun Than Selfies/AKA Fall at 60MPH

Almost trashed these but decided they were kinda fun! The colors on the trees were spectacular as I drove 60 mph on a two-lane road with no shoulders and nowhere to pull off for photos. So I grabbed the camera and snapped a few shots out the window as I drove (I know Mom, it’s not very safe). One-handed photography is challenging but doable! Until it becomes illegal.
