Hi Dave,
I'm glad you ventured out of your cave long enough to post this shot of a favorite tree species of mine. We just got back from Colorado and saw similar ones in their golden fall attire.

From what college did your daughter graduate? I live in Salem, Oregon. I spend a lot of time at Willamette University here in town.

It is probably just as well that you didn't stop at Yellowstone. From Memorial Day till Labor Day one can hardly get in there with a shoehorn! It can be a bit distressing.

I took the liberty of brightening up your aspen trees a little. There is little more cheerful in the western woods than the white barked aspen.. so I made them a little more white barked and cheerful. : )

TFS and welcome back,

Evelynn : )

Aaaaaah !! It's been sooooo long since you've posted a picture ! Great composition on this one with very good technique.The exposure and sharpness is very good too. I wouldn't like to make a jigsaw puzzle of that image ! ;-) Great new shot Dave ! Thanks,

Hello David,
This is a nice scenery and I like this unusual composition; it is different. I think that the WS enhanced the picture by making it a little more contrasted and saturated. Those little flowers in foreground are very lovely indeed. This is nice to see a new post from you :) Thanks,
Claudine

I am partial to Aspen which is probably why I like this shot. I have tried this but have not been tenacious enough. There are Aspen here in abundance. I do have some pics but the girth is not as great in mine as yours.. Well done.

Hello Dave

This stand of aspens is beautiful.
The vertical composition has very good visual impact.
The colours are rich and deep.
Well done.

Darn it, I've over slept Dave,
Nice shot of this stand of aspens, I like the white flowers FG, and the rocky BG that rises up behind..I also liked your WS, more contrast was just what the doctor ordered ;}
Well done,
Howard

Hi Dave!
Welcome back! I've been hit or miss here myself as well, I love these trees, now I know they aren't white birch trees too..:o) Something about the white bark against the dark green , it just looks so beautiful. TFS
