The big news in the mountains here in Colorado is the recent destruction that is being caused by the pine beetle. A quick google search can reveal a plethora of articles which cover the subject, but a recent article I read on the subject can be found HERE.
So while on my recent ride in Keystone, I went through areas where the dead fall is quite impressive. I angled the focal plane of the tilt shift lens in the photo below so that it is aligned with the ground, highlighting all the fallen trees into the distance. The images below are really impressive viewed at full size; you really get the feel of what it was like to be there.
