This is wonderful. So sharp right the way back to the mountains. Shutter up? I love the yellow that leads us through the scene. This is such a beautiful shot. I’d love to visit Colorado one day. We get hills and trees in England but never the range of colours all at once that this landscape has.

As stated above, this is a great landscape that looks like a Post Card. This is a very beautiful photograph, which one should come to EXPECT from Tad Bowman, at this point. The mountains in this are so well focused with the ‘yellow trail’, as with everything else, just a great composition. :)

Tad, this is inspirational. I am a water colorist and will try to paint this. Thank you! Aloha.

Tad, that’s a lovely shot. The title seems a bit misleading though. The light falling on the scene doesn’t look like a sunrise to me. I’d say more likely mid to late morning. This may sound picky but I’m really just curious. Thanks for sharing.

Magnificent! I often dream of the golden aspens smothering the mountainsides. I could ‘follow the yellow brick road’ to this Oz any time and be perfectly happy. Thanks for such a lovely shot during our most recent blizzard.

Thanks everyone so much for the kind words and feedback. I really appreciate it.
