When Aspen Eyes Are Smiling

Aspens, like most trees, are mesmerizing.  They stand as prodigies to nature, ever watchful of their surroundings. Poets and lovers alike have etched their graffiti prose on the trunks of these old sentries.  Every tree top sings adulation towards the heavens above.

Shooting forests in late spring and early summer can be a challenge.  Deep heavy snows in the high country might have melted, but you can never be sure.  This day, however, was favorable to the camera and photographer alike, as is evident by the green grassy ferns sprouting up on the forest floors.

Mother Nature, as you can see in the right side of picture, was pleased, as she is giving me the eye of approval.
