Now that summer is winding down, my mind is fully set on the colors of autumn in the coming months. The best thing about living in the southwest is that you get to enjoy autumn colors for months instead of weeks unlike many areas of the country. This image was photographed last October in Flagstaff. The aspens were at peak in this section and I wanted to get this cliche shot of the aspens rising into the sky. I had tried the same shot a week before under clear skies, but with the clouds it allowed the pockets of blue to pop and contrast with the golden foliage. I can’t wait to get my first glimpse of fall color in a couple of weeks!
