A day of indulgence

I'll beg your indulgence for one more post about the colorful aspen trees (Populus tremuloides)
we found in the mountains northeast of Santa Fe on October 18th.

I could keep showing pictures of them for days.

But I won't. In the next post I'll move on.

I owe that last picture to construction, which had a stretch of the road's two lanes down to one. Cars going in opposite directions got alternating use of the open lane every 15 minutes or so. Since I was stuck there anyhow I didn't have to worry about finding a place to park. I got out and walked around taking pictures, including this one where backlighting lit up the foliage.
