Fire Frame

After hiking several miles in the San Juan National Forest near Pagosa Springs, Colorado and searching for fall aspen compositions, I found this one. I was hoping to frame up Eagle Peak - a prominent peak seen from Pagosa (pictured) with some colorful aspen leaves. The vibrance of the aspen leaves I used as my frame was incredible.
