As much as I hate to admit it, fall is just around the corner. I’m more of a summer kind of guy. It’s not that I hate fall, it’s that fall signals winter, and winter I could do without. Living here in Colorado we have all sorts of opportunities to photograph the changing of the guard. This image was a quick grab. We were driving down back road in Crested Butte last year and happened upon this beautiful scene. I jumped out and grabbed this one before any cars showed up to ruin it. I made this image with my trusty Nikon 28-300. You can read my full review of it here. I love that lens!
I maintain a map of various photo locations around CO, so I thought I would share it with you in case you are heading out to see the colors. Also, if you are a Kelbytraining.com member, Moose Peterson just released a great video about photographing fall colors. I’m in no way affiliated with Kelby Training, but I highly recommend it. It is an amazing training resource.

Very pretty. One of these days I’ll visit Colorado.
Cool! We’d love to have you visit the great state of CO.
Great shot, and I can’t wait. It feels as though its been a very long and hot summer.
Thanks Kris! You are in NY right? How are the winters out there?
Awesome! Thanks for sharing the map! Awesome scene!
Thanks Hansrico!
