    I very much like the colors in this one. Great light and sky too.
    Anybody can do it.

    I bit over saturated for my tastes. The limbs on the top are bugging me too. Maybe tone down the saturation and crop it as a pano?

    Very nice. The mountains have a painting quality to them. The limbs in the upper right with the sky between them direct the eye right at the mountains from which one can't help but notice the color contrasts in the foreground.

    I like it!

    The collegiate range is a good one, especially since they're made of different rock that makes them white, in spread of the typical red granite known in Colorado.

    I don't think the aspens are over sat....it's pretty typical of them to look like this.

    Sadly all of the aspens are losing their leaves today... Such strong wind...it's insane.

    Thanks Ryan, I loved that area. Can't wait to get back there. The saturated look on the leaves was due to a steady mist that fell most of the night. We were camped on the Arkansas River and got the rain. Mt. Princeton recieved it's first snow of the year! It was quite a sight to wake up to. I think the yellow trees in this photo are Cottonwoods.

    Thanks for the compliment. I took several photos without the pine limb framing the the mountain. I didn't like the ones without the frame nears as much as I like this one.
