There was still some color on leaves when winter came to the High Line Canal Trail in Englewood Colorado a suburb of Denver. It is fun to find little gems like this lone leaf while sauntering a heavily used urban trail. Sometimes you just have to stop and enjoy the light.
Ferns in Rock Wall

Autumn Leaves in Three Mile Creek
As the season changes in the Rocky Mountains the streams are littered with beautiful gold and orange leaves from the shedding aspens. I was sitting next to Three Mile Creek in the Mount Evans Wilderness meditating with my thoughts and absorbing the calm soft colors in this splendid little creek. I believe these moments are required to keep my sanity in this modern hectic life.

Gold in the Forest Understory
It is very rewarding finding small treasures while hiking next to Saint Louis Creek in the Vasquez Mountain Wilderness. I love getting photos of grand vistas and majestic landscapes but sometimes it’s the gold along the trail that can be uber special. The colors in the Colorado Rockies during autumn are special and it is no different in the mountains near Winter Park.
