Still up on top of Santa Fe Mountain, as Autumn temperatures continue dropping, the aspen leaves achieve their spectacular golden yellow peak just as their tall, slender stems take on a contrasting palette of various shades of a grey-to-taupe.

By adding further contrast with my camera strokes, I’m able to blend these elements and colors, backed by the intermingling evergreens.
