SHOT 9/19/12 4:02:20 PM - A lone yellow aspen leaf on a rock in a stream near Nederland, Co. Aspens are trees of the willow family and comprise a section of the poplar genus, Populus sect. Populus. The Quaking Aspen of North America is known for its leaves turning spectacular tints of red and yellow in the autumn of the year (and usually in the early autumn at the altitudes where it lives). This causes forests of aspen trees to be noted tourist attractions for viewing them in the fall. (Photo by Marc Piscotty / © 2012)
