Changing seasons, Cache National Forest, Idaho, 2008

I’ve tried to express the changing seasons in this image of fall color in Idaho’s high country. I use backlighting to make the Aspen leaves translucent, and bring out the comparison between the tree full of leaves at the center and the branches in the process of shedding their leaves at right. Meanwhile, the pine tree at left is impervious to the changing seasons, and holds its green color.

Beautiful

That was what drove this image for me, Tim -- the way everything flowed together. The struggle came in finding that flow -- when we look at a mass of trees, it is difficult to isolate a portion such as this image, where everything in the image interacts in layers of color and form.

I like the sense of rhythm here is the interaction of the layers and forms.
