You’ve probably already spotted it on your Facebook timelines and Instagram feeds, but Colorado’s fall colors are finally lighting up the mountains.

Photographer RJ Sangosti shot these images on Sept. 27 at Kenosha Pass (at about 10,000 feet of elevation), and as you can see, colors are starting to peak out there.
