Independence Pass / Aspen – Fall, 2012

A few pictures and video still-frames from a short road trip I took from from Denver to Aspen last weekend.

Aspen leaves– obligatory, but still nice.

These trees remind me of can-can dancers in a Toulouse-Lautrec painting.

Bridge in the wilderness preserve in Aspen.

I was really curious to know what these berries might taste like, but the thought of hallucination, followed by death put a bit of a damper on finding out.

Some great back-lighting behind this stand of aspen.

Sunset at Twin Lakes, CO.

Moonlight illuminates the top of Independence Pass.

Top of the Rockies, around 2am. Already super COLD at this elevation.
