Nothing gets a nature photographer as excited as the arrival of autumn. Sarah and I are very lucky to live in southwest Colorado, among the San Juan Mountains, one of the prime locations for fall colors in the US.

Despite the inevitable doomsday predictions that the colors would be bad or super early, the colors were fantastic and right on time (late September and early October), as they usually are every year. In addition to the color we had some interesting weather especially late in the season.

Here’s a small selection of my photos from the fall this year, for the full set, see my 2018 Colorado Autumn Gallery.
