Dancing Aspen, Colorado Summer
A popular photographic subject, the curvilinear shape of these unusual aspen trees in the San Juan Mountains of Colorado was likely caused by an avalanche or soil creep when the trees were young. While these trees are commonly photographed in the height of the fall season, I found the lush green foliage carpeting the forest floor in summertime to be equally as beautiful as the autumnal foliage. The bright summer sunlight was made diffuse by thick wildfire smoke, but the sound of aspen leaves gently blowing in the breeze made for an enjoyable, therapeutic experience in the forest.
