I could see a shot forming as the soft light hit the glowing aspens, reflecting that glow in the creek. Taken at the famous "True Grit" spot along Owl Creek Pass, I'm always pleasantly surprised when I can form a composition that doesn't include the grand landscape. This more intimate shot spoke to my inner joy of light and the flow of water in nature. Such a peaceful experience to bask in the glowing light, taking a moment to appreciate the fallen leaves and the gentle sound of the creek and rustling leaves.
