Redstone Winter - Colorado Landscape Photography

A winter stand of cottonwood trees with their white bark showing prominently provides a contrast against the sandstone cliff.The winter wind is sharp today but the sun is bright as I walk down the dusty dry dirt road. It is unusual to be so dry in January. The warm sun is welcome none the less and takes the sting out of the cold air. The white bare trunks of the cottonwood trees catch my attention as they stand out prominently against the red sandstone cliff that gives this valley its name, Redstone Canyon. My home.
