Aspens in Autumn Yellow | northern California landscape photographer
Autumn! Like many of you, it's my favorite time of year. After a warm summer (okay, HOT), the cooling temperatures are welcome. Crisp mornings and cool evenings with lovely, comfortable days. They're the best! But those changing colors are what I really look forward to in fall. I'm always amazed at the richness of the yellows, reds, and oranges with their varying tones. None are more beautiful than aspens showing off their intense yellow. A few years ago I managed to squeeze in a quick trip to the southeastern Sierra to view the color there. Having never visited that area before, I really didn't know what to expect. Although, I'd heard that it was a fantastic place for viewing aspens, fall color, and unique landscape. I was not disappointed.
A couple of years later, I photographed fall colors in the states of Washington, and later in Colorado. I just love the aspens' white trunks, sometimes curved, with the dark gray markings. They're the perfect backdrop for showing off those vibrant yellow colors.
These photos are a mixture of those trips. Not all images are of aspens, but I just couldn’t leave them out!
I haven’t decided where my fall colors trip will be this season, but I need to get it figured out soon! I’d love to hear any suggestions you have for fall photography locations. Just list them in the Comments. Thanks in advance!
“Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty,
as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.”

A few years ago when my friends decided to head to Leavenworth, WA to catch autumn leaves in all their glorious color, I just couldn't say 'no'. And, I'm so glad I made the trip.
