Frozen pond near Marble Colorado
While the entire scene was very attractive, the texture of the new snow on the pond, as well as those rocks and plants that were both above and below the surface, was most interesting to me.
Mountain Pond in Late Autumn
Because it's so close to home, this pond near Marble ought to be a favorite subject of mine. Oddly enough, I've not taken that many photos here. Conditions were perfect this afternoon, and I'm glad I ventured up there.

Colorado Snowstorm
Chair Mountain is obscured by clouds in this late autumn scene in the Crystal River valley of Colorado.
This bend in the river below McClure Pass is an area known as Placita, or "little place," where a small settlement once existed. The remains of a coal mine are on the east side of the river. This is about halfway between Redstone and Marble, Colorado.
