Fall Foliage In Colorado

Photos Of Autumn Foliage In The Rocky Mountains - September 23, 2010

Photo Gallery Early this morning I went into the mountains west of Buena Vista, Colorado, in hopes of photographing colorful fall foliage. The sky was quite gray, as some precipitation happened overnight, which did not make for the greatest conditions. When I saw this bright yellow aspen grove on the side of the road, I hiked into it to see what pictures I could get.

All in all, the lighting was poor, but look at these bright fall colors!

The aspen and its golden leaves - this is the "signature tree" that most people think of on a Colorado fall colors tour.

In the afternoon, I traveled on another scenic road with beautiful fall scenery and a mountain behind. Photos by Steve Garufi in Buena Vista, Colorado - Facebook: facebook.com/coloradoguycom Twitter: @SteveGarufi
