Any time is a good time for fall color. Matt Payne photographs.
Here are some vertical Colorado fall color images I captured this year. It was a fun year for tighter, more intimate scenes like these. I experimented a lot with my 110mm macro and used it for non-macro work. I hope you enjoy them!

Great to see William Neill sharing photographs here. He's definitely worth following! (And if you are in Yosemite, you should visit his show at the Ansel Adams Gallery.)
I have just posted a new portfolio on my website, inspired by the current exhibit at The Ansel Adams Gallery.

Beautiful snow (or so I assume) in this Ian Gaston photograph.
After spending some time in the Eastern Sierras, I made a quick stop to an iconically unique and special place.
