The light was very good for this scene. You still have another month of interesting colors in the hills when you search out small scenes with the more earthen toned color palette. I always liked the period after the leaves have finished their shows and before the snow buries everything closer to Thanksgiving when I lived in Utah.

Man this light is awesome Ben. The reds are great, but that light is a very painterly light. I am a bit envious that you have such cool colors close to home.

Just beautiful Ben. Conditions that we dream of. You 'could' bring out a bit of yellow in those trees with PS.

 

[Beth]

the muted browns of the trees works. it matches the warm light on the mountains perfectly.

Gorgeous light!

Thanks Alan. I will keep that idea in mind. I am usually done with photography from now until spring.

Hey Jim, be glad to take you here, this is also where the yellow flower fields bloom in spring. But the opportunities are very time sensitive.

Thanks Jeffrey. Those are oaks and there color is red or brown, not many aspen in this view.

Thanks Pepper.

Gorgeous light!

Thanks Darcy

Great light Ben, and gorgeous scene overall, the biggest distraction for me is the tree on the left,
and maybe what Jeffrey suggested.

Cheers!

Thanks Andrey. As mentioned to Jeffrey, these are oaks and they are red when in fall color or brown as now seen. This image was about post peak color and I left that dead tree in on purpose. But I really appreciate your thoughts. The whole idea for me is to see if an idea like this works and when it has nits, what are they, you thoughts are very helpful.

I like the color pallette
