Colors of Colorado

Recommended Posts

Many of you know that I have been shooting a Nikon more than a Winchester the past several years.  As life progresses, interests change also.  I do find landscape photography a lot like hunting in that one has to research and scout locations, check the weather, hike in the dark to get to locations, and have patience for the right opportunity.  Even if a glorious sunset does not happen, or a royal bull steps in the opening, the time spent in nature is a blessing.

This past Oktober, I spent the first week in southwest Colorado photographing fall colors.  I had not been to Colorado in five years for various reasons, but the return happened when the colors of the aspens and oaks were the best in several years.  What wonders some summer rain and optimum temperature make.  The venture to the San Juan Mountains included some areas that I was familiar with and then an area I was invited to meet some friends.  Turns out, this "new" location was where I had archer and rifle hunted elk for a few seasons twenty some odd years ago.

Here is one of my favorite image from the trip.  The rest may be seen on my website using this link: https://www.plateaulightphotography.com/New-Work/Colorado-Fall-2021/

Beautiful photos throughout the album Doug.

Makes me feel like I am there.  I'm certain a metal print will look stunning!

Right in my backyard!  It was a colorful fall.

About ten years ago, I pondered a move to Durango or Mancos.  Decided to stay in Flagstaff though.

I have been printing on metal as the colors really pop compared to printing on canvas or paper. 

Thanks for the looks and comments Kevin and Mark.
