A Closer View

I know you may be getting tired of my peak and aspen shots, but I just can't seem to get enough of the fall colors this year! It's one of the better years for the colors. I am just not sure about my gas bill!! I am fortunate to live close to the mountains, but this is still a 45 drive to this location and I have been going up a lot lately!! It's an amazing drive and such beautiful colors right now!

Thank you all for your comments and favs over the last few days! I am so humbled and appreciative of your amazing support!!
Gorgeous sky and aspen. Keep em coming, they are beautiful.

I will never get tired of your peak and aspen shots since I live in Florida!! We don't have any big changes for fall so I'm really enjoying seeing fall through your eyes. This is so beautiful. Your composition is excellent!

@jannkc Thank you Jann!
@juliehill Thank you Julie!
@tori3012 Thank you Victoria!
@orangecrush Thank you so much Jerry! Gas has come down a bit here, but I am obsessed with the drive and it's a good thing I have a portable hard drive for the insane number of pics I take!
@kim11472 Thank you so much Kim! I guess I take it for granted that I live in a location that experiences all four seasons. I will definitely get some winter shots up there!
@kerristephens @boysami @pixelchix @sjodell Thank you so much!
@morrisroos Thank you Don! I'm originally from Iowa and sure remember how pretty it can be in the fall. I know here, it changes much faster at the higher elevations. We are just now seeing the leaves change in the city!
@johnnyfrs Thank you so much John! I sure will get some snow shots. They leave the highway up there open in the winter, as long as it's been plowed!
@jodimuli @denisedaly Thank you!
@jgill Thank you Jacki! I think I will continue this theme for a few more days!
@shellbelle Thank you!
@veronicab Thank you so much Veronica! I sure appreciate the encouragement too. I think I will continue this theme for a few more days. I know you will just love the colors out here! Sounds like the weather is supposed to be great into next week too!!
@raebell @cora Thank you both for the encouragement!
@ajimages Thank you Alan!
@hjbenson Thank you Harry!
@mwarren365 Thank you Mike! Yes, definitely gold for sure!
@bkbinthecity Thank you so much for your thoughts!
@webfoot Thank you so much Paul and for the fav too!!
@kiwichick Thank you Leslie! Yes, can you believe it! We especially see it on the north side of the Peak. In the city, it doesn't appear to have much up there, but once you travel up on the north side, it's awesome!
@foolmoon Thank you so much Moony for your encouraging words! I think I will continue this theme for a few more days!
@zferrie @bdb3471 @laurentye @pandorasecho Thank you all so much for you encouraging words!!
