I took lots of photos and walked around the lake, for views that changed with every few steps. The trees were "past their peak" but what does that mean? Some of them were missing their leaves, but the scene absolutely glowed. I love Colorado. Didn't have time or energy to do a 16 x 20 on location (I probably never will) but I had my small reference color sketches, and still had the memory to re-create this one in my studio.

Maroon Bells with Lake
I took lots of photos and walked around the lake, for views that changed with every few steps. The trees were "past their peak" but what does that mean?
