Out for a drive along a fairly busy road with no shoulder and I see this GORGEOUS stand of aspens! Naturally, in true Laura fashion, I abruptly pulled the car over on what little patch of driveway I could find and got out to photograph these beauties before the light faded.
The whites of the bark was stunningly eye-catching BUT what I loved even more was the pops of green, reds, tans & yellows of the foliage and flora surrounding them. It reminded me of the mish-mash of leftover balls of wool in nanny's knitting bag, bringing warmth and coziness to the scene 💕
Upon exiting the car, I waited quite some time for the stream of traffic to break so I could safely cross the road.. and then the adventure began 🤩  Embarking on an impromptu photo-adventure that made my soul sing 🎶
Here's a few behind the scenes photos from the making of these beauties!
★★★ I gotta know ~ which is your FAVE? ★★★
The realism, impressionism or both?

Yes Karen!! 😀 Great imagination. There are most likely a lot of ‘creatures’ in those trees, but wouldn’t it be sooo glorious if a large elk with a huge rack of antlers poked his nose out. ( If only we had elk in our neck of the woods ) I could totally see some majestic wildlife appearing within the frame and that would be AWE-some!
I always like the realism best! I think of ‘hidden beauty’ in this photo, like there are creatures hiding away among the trees, which might appear if one waited quietly.
