Cristi this is spectacular. Earlier in the year I took a photo in almost the same spot with the sun shining onto a young aspen in the middle of the old growth. Indeed the Alpine Loop is a great photo adventure and you excelled wondefully! #2271078

I love this shot Cristi! Great contrast on the trees' color and the fallen leaves. Also a vertical composition suits this image. Very dream-like indeed.
