Nice to see one back-lit for a change. Lovely.

the bright colors are amazing. it's either an aspen or a birch, looks like a birch from this shot. birch leaves are shaped like spades with sharp teeth. aspens are shaped like hearts with rounded edges. birch tree bark has little black lines running horizontally, aspens have longer lines that run the full circumference.

Thanks Pete - I slipped the sun behind the trunk to shade the front element a bit

Thanks Beth - I'm useless on trees
