Good Timing

When people talk about fall color in the western US, they refer to the changing Aspen leaves. In Aspendell, a suburb of Bishop, California, I found a stand of Aspen that was peaking, as you can see the full range of color in this one section of trees. A couple hundred feet of elevation higher and the leaves were nearly gone, a couple hundred feet lower and there was no color shift. So, for this location it was perfect timing!
