Backlit Aspens - Friend and fellow tour guide Nat Coalson who we passed on the road to Crystal Mill, recommended we check out the aspen grove just past the near-ghost town of Crystal once we had finished photographing the Mill. Boy, am I glad we did. We had stayed at the Mill until near sunset and as dusk was approaching, we drove on past Crystal and were met with this incredible scene. While the sun was well down, there was enough glow from the sky to provide an amazing backlight to the golden leaves. Everywhere we pointed our cameras was more backlit scenery! We took individual shots. We took panoramics. We "worked it" for all it was worth. By the way; most of the photographers had left long ago. We were nearly the only ones to experience this amazing light! Just goes to show you it's always worth staying "a little longer", just in case God plans a special show. Forget Crystal Mill - this is the picture to capture!
