Vivid colors of the quakin' aspen in fall. I can almost smell the cool brisk air. The starkness of the sky against the brightly colored trees and landscapes make this a vision of true beauty. I hope your sister appreciates how very special this image is. Love it Gary.Renee Nemerov 28 Apr 2006

The clouds are so dramatic and they visually grab one and take you towards the beautiful mountain peaks and the brightness of the shoreline with it's gorgeous rusty colours set against all the shades of dark, white, and gray values.. And the reflection in the mirror like water is a calming contrast to the stormy rush of the clouds over head... BRILLIANT capture.. :o)Christine brand 25 Apr 2006
