SUMMIT COUNTY — Taking a cue from the magpies that perch in tip of an aspen outside my kitchen window (scroll to the last picture), I try to get out early some mornings to catch the first light.

I keep going back to the same clump of grass near Heaton Bay to catch it in different light, and on this evening, the scene was subdued, but still rich in muted shades of late autumn.

Every sunny morning the past few weeks, one or two magpies perch in the tip of this aspen tree right outside the kitchen window, waiting to greet the first rays of sun as soon as possible.
