#Goldenhour in the #mountains of #Colorado illuminating the #Aspens in #Fall is always special but my time always feels limited because that also happens to be harvest time. Here is a late afternoon shot of #AspenTrees popping against their leaves.

A lot of landscape photographers say summer photography is a good down period but im like you serious? It’s milkyway season and access to heavy snow areas with flowers. #milkyway #jacksonhole #grandtetons #wyoming #galacticcore #astrophotography #moultonbarns #mormonrow #nightsky #darksky #landscape

Thank you very much, it was a good way to make up for lack of composition when the light really hit.

thank you very much, it’s my first successful-ish intentional movement picture, I tried a bit before to just pure chaos.

#Fall #photography trips don’t mean all fall foliage… sometimes you try to not get lost and find the #Milkyway and I don’t mean the candy bar. Here in #GobblinValleyStatePark and it’s #hoodoos we get it in #Utah.

Back lit #fall foliage shimmering in its own reflection in the eastern #Sierras just east of #Bishop #California in early #October light on my #roadtrip to #Colorado, time was limited due to work and road conditions but just fortunate to take it in. #fallcolor #us395

A small lake off of bishop creek in Bishop California exploding with fall color in early morning October light. A quick stop on my way to Colorado.

Fall is possibly the most interesting time of year to photograph in the USA because it’s so climate dependent dictating the colors, the timing and location.

The San Juan’s in October are always surreal and it feels like the light just wants to do what it can to make your time enjoyable. I wish the folks were a little nicer. #SanJuanMountains #Fall #Colorado #PagosaSprings #October #GoldenHour @lpmag.bsky.social @outdoorphotography.bsky.social

Driving from Pagosa Springs to Aurora during golden hour over the San Juan’s and southern Colorado can be surreal, amazing three weeks later as I came back the tops were covered in Snow.

With the series of snow storms pummeling the west since the end of October it makes the fall color I saw in early October in the mountains Utah seem so far away.

Fall in the #SanJuans, this past October in the high country around #Telluride, timing wasn’t ideal but it was a nice respite on my trip east from California to visit my parents in their new home and state of #Colorado. I miss NJ but there are some perks. #LastDollarHighway
