A Creek Flows by in the Mountains of Colorado

            A view to the north while crossing a foot bridge over West Maroon Creek. The sunlight of the early morning hours had not come down into Maroon Creek valley yet. Because of that, I was able to capture an image that brought out deeper colors of the nearby aspens and vegetation. I also liked how the silver-ish/blues of the creek was a nice contrast as it flowed though the valley down to Maroon Lake.
