Photo of the Day | May 10 | Gold Standard by Barry Steven Greff
On an extremely long ride from Denver to Steamboat Springs, Colorado in late Autumn, the road seemed endless and relatively uneventful. Then, somewhere en route to the final destination, a snow-covered mountain appeared behind some foothills covered with golden Aspens. Since this type of scene warrants a detour, I drove toward the location, navigating side roads to find the best vantage point to set up and capture this image.
