This is a shot from October 2011 made up near Sonora Pass. As usual, I played a waiting game with the ever-present breeze.

Tachihara 4x5
210mm Symmar-S
Velvia 100

Your thoughts are always appreciated!

A worthwhile, Preston. Good variety in the Aspen branches and good
BG texture, and, of course, the leaves are lovely.

Real nice, Preston. A fine little intimate study of an aspen, kind of an aspen bouquet.

I agree. A lovely composition. I want for just a hint of texture in the leaves though.

Thanks for the comments!

Nick, compression is hurting this one some. There is good detail in the leaves in the print.
