We were hiking on the Trappers Run Trail in Vail Colorado during the Fall in 2016 after the changing of the leaves.  The picture was taken later in the afternoon with the foreground in the sunlight and the background mountain in complete shade. That really helped to separate the lightly colored branches from the dark background.

When my wife saw this photograph, she automatically commented that it looked like “Tree Lace”.  The intertwining of the bare white tree branches give the effect lace. The bare branches show such unique and interesting patterns.

This just accentuates the fact there is beauty everywhere if we would only take the time to look.

Such beauty does not need to changed, and thus this photograph is untouched and real!

kw6a1663-copyThese trees were shot as we hiked on Trapper’s Run in Vail, Colorado.  We went hiking in the afternoon and enjoyed shooting these photographs of the Aspen Tree Forest.  We were disappointed that we missed the fall foliage.  But seeing the bare trees allowed us to focus more on the straightness of the tree trunks and the density of the forest.

This photograph was taken in the late afternoon.  The light for outdoor photography is usually better in the early morning or late afternoon.  The color temperature of sunlight is warmer giving more orange tones.  The sunlight has more dimension since the sun is lower on the horizon creating longer shadows.

My goal was to shoot photographs in the late afternoon.  We were also fortunate that the clouds cleared so I could photograph with the pretty blue sky.

We  loved the white tree bark with the contrasting blue sky and dark ground.  Everyone should experience the quiet and stillness of the Aspen Forest.

kw6a2270-copyWonderful hike on the Booth Creek Trail late afternoon on Tuesday, October 25, 2016.  The afternoon shadows and reflections of the sky cast a cool blue light on the white trunks of the Aspen trees in the foreground while the sunlight illuminated the bare Aspen trees on the mountain side in the background.  This juxtaposition of light was very striking as I witnessed it and had to take some photographs of it.
