The Aspen tress are doing their thing and a day spent soaking it up is an experience as good as gold.
Happy fall to all.

Sun, Trees and River
The setting sun behind burnt trees shimmering silver on the Norris river in Yellowstone National Park.
In a quiet forest
A quiet walk in a quiet forest where old trees have been kissed by fire and young trees grow. Sun behind the clouds yet peeking between the trees.
In a quiet forest life goes on.
Hey Chippy!
Hey Chip, Chipmunk that is.
What you doing up high in that tree?
Although we see Chipmunks in trees frequently it is always seems surprising and a good surprise at that.
The Boys Club
I could be mistaken but along the trail and just down the hill was a sign that read “Boys Only” and perhaps that was so as a Mule Deer Buck and young Bighorn Ram hung out together under the comfort of large shade tree on a warm fall afternoon. This is the first time we have encountered both a Bighorn Sheep and Mule Deer together through the viewfinder. An unusual and interesting encounter.
Fish eye view.
Not a fish eyed lens but a lens trying to be a fish eye. Seeing things differently…easier said than done..but always worth the effort.
Lichen it
Even the rocks are dressed in the latest fall fashions.

On the forest floor
After a mile or two of a hike that began in tall grassland and meadows we suddenly entered a stretch of trail that wound it’s way through a luxuriant forest filled with treasures of all kind. From beautiful Woodland Pinedrops to what seemed an unending variety of ground covers, the landscape was transformed. From dry to wet, from brown to green, you never know what you’ll find on the forest floor.
Unusual fungi and tiny white bells.
Life took many forms and all play a part in the ecosystem of the forest floor.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend and some time to explore.
Last Standing
High up in the hills the flowers have all flowered and transition fills the air. What a wonderful time.
