What attracted me to the scene was the layers of color. The foreground grasses had faded to a pale purplish hue but the grasses under the aspen trees were still bright shades of green. The aspen were flaming yellow. I shot the image in RAW which allowed me to bring up the colors and mid-tones. I processed the image in Lightroom CC first and then brought it into Photoshop for final touches.
