This photograph was taken during the Fall season of Capitol Peak near Aspen, Colorado. The sun was filtering through the clouds warming the foreground while a snow storm was approaching quickly in the background.

I feel I could walk into this scene. The peace/vastness and tranquility it conveys is soul and spirit enlightening.

I love this photo. As a Coloradan, I enjoy the mix we get of sun in the foreground and threatening clouds over the majestic mountains … your photo has this combination!
