DG0018 - Turn Into the Evening Light

I was driving around one afternoon looking for places to capture the amazing fall colors this particular day when I rounded a corner and saw this view.  I pulled over and set up my tripod to see what shots I could get.  About that time a car drove through and there was dust EVERYWHERE!  Mumbling and totally distraught, I reached up to take my camera off of the tripod and happened to look up.  It was then I noticed most of the dust had subsided, but what little remained was helping to amplify the rays of the late afternoon sun.  I immediately started snapping the shutter while making a mental note to slow down and see what nature can provide.
