This photo was taken at Manti-La Sal National Forest in Utah. I was snowshoeing on a forest road that had been closed for the winter due to snowfall, and came across this beautiful stand of Aspen situated directly in front of darker conifers. This composition was practically screaming at me when I first laid eyes upon the scene, so I obliged.

About the Photographer
I'm a 19 year old college student/nature photographer living in the greater Washington, D.C. area, and I spend just about all of my free time and energy pursuing nature photography-related endeavors. I like to travel and spend as much time in the field as possible, and am quite skilled at amassing large quantities of photographs that need to be processed.
