"Mountain Glory"

A hidden grove of aspens and willows among early evening light. Bridgeport, Ca. 10-9-24

I really like how the aspens light up with the late day sun angle. Well framed shot.

Thanks again, Alan. Took some time to figure out. It was a beautiful evening for it!

Nice light to highlight the colors. I think there is another composition which loses the lower half to bring the focus to the lighter grove.

Thanks, Jameel. Really though about that in the field. Here, I was trying to add in more than the obvious elements and allowing the rocks to provide a contrasting foreground.

The one you posted is a nice composition with the added foreground. My comment was that you can create another composition which also is pretty strong

I guess you're right on that. I can get rid of the brightest rock and the bottom and then go from there. I'll give that a try!

That is some glorious lighting Kurt. Great find here.
