Prospect Park near 11th street puts on a magnificent fall show. The morning light contains a moisture that creates a magical quality as joggers and bikers move through it.

A minute wooden board reads “Ranch” under the splendor of yellow leaves.

The earth has a presence of aliveness that generates a feeling of well-being. I thought this tree captured that alive quality. The location is the Eagle River near Eagle, Colorado. The original highway takes you through the canyons and alongside the river. Definitely take it rather than tear through on I-70.
