[QUOTE="STM, post: 381014, member: 12827"] I headed WNW out of Springerville into the mountains today. I got up to about 9600 feet in places. A lot of the snow is still there, even though the temperatures were hovering around 40. There are [I]a lot [/I]of stands of Aspen up there, especially in the higher elevations. I also came upon some old decrepit barns and houses there and stopped to photograph them. I love to photograph textures on old and weathered wood. A stand of Aspens, 85mm f/1.4 AIS [URL=http://smg.photobucket.com/user/stm58/media/Aspens1-1000-1.jpg.html][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v138/stm58/Aspens1-1000-1.jpg[/IMG][/URL] An old, abandoned barn.
