The Story Behind This Shot

A hillside off Kebler Pass near Crested Butte, Colorado, packed with aspens at full gold and dark spruce threaded through them, rolling up to a snow-dusted ridgeline. A vertical frame lets the color stack layer by layer from the foreground to the peaks. Early October is the narrow window when the aspens are this saturated and the first snow is already on the high country. A warm, richly layered fall landscape print that fills a tall wall beautifully.
