Another of the few photographs I took this past fall. This was taken on the same day and trip as the last post. As you wind your way south along Highway 24, just before reaching the top of Battle Mountain Summit (a 9,243-foot pass), you will see the remains of the mining town of Gilman. […]
Standing in Gold-Colorful Aspen Grove in Colorado
I was so busy last fall that I barely had any time to get out to shoot fall color in Colorado. Fortunately, I managed to take a side trip on my way back home from a business trip up to Minturn late in September. The colors along Highway 24 were just too good to ignore […]
Sudden Descent-Comet Falls in Mount Rainier National Park
Comet Falls is one of the most impressive falls in Mount Rainier National Park, so it was definitely on my list of places to get to on my trip to the park. The most intimidating part of getting to it was the hike to get there. The 1.7-mile distance was nothing, it was the 1,400-foot […]
Finding My Way-Deer Creek Falls in Mount Rainier National Park
As promised, I am going to start posting some new pictures! This is Deer Creek Falls in Mount Rainier National Park. It was the second falls that my son Justin and I stopped at early one morning this past August. It was an easy hike along the Owyhigh Lakes Trail from the trailhead along Highway […]
The Giant Awakens-Mount Rainier Emerges From The Clouds
As was true with most of the mornings at Mount Rainier National Park, the Tipsoo Lake area was socked in the clouds when I arrived before sunrise. At least this morning you could catch occasional glimpses of the peak as the skies started to lighten. I setup in the same spot I had setup many […]
Woodland Serenity-Silver Falls in Mount Rainier National Park
I just returned home from a trip out to Mount Rainier National Park outside of Seattle. My son Justin joined me for the first part of the trip and we had fun exploring the park for our first time. We were greeted by clear blue skies and unheard of temperatures close to 90 degrees in […]
Golden Grove-Colorado Aspen Forest Panorama
There is a large aspen grove that sits on top of a ridge down the valley from my home outside of Buena Vista. It is so large that in the fall, I can keep tabs on the changing colors by just looking out my window. That makes it easy for me to tell when it […]
Autumn Color Splash-Vibrant Colorado Aspen Panorama
I was so busy this past summer participating in art shows around Colorado that I barely got a chance to get out to take any pictures. It was driving me crazy, especially since I had picked up a new camera late in June. I finally got a chance to get out and do some shooting […]
Jungle Pearl-Paihi Falls on Hana Road in Maui
The gentle rain never let up as I sat at Koki Beach waiting for sunrise this morning. After an hour or so, I decided it was time to move on and explore other opportunities. I set my GPS to take me to some of the waterfalls on the road south of Hana and made my […]
Dawning Blush-Peaceful Sunrise on Polo Beach in Maui
What a peaceful way to start the day. This morning was entirely the opposite of the day before at Dragon’s Teeth (read more here). There weren’t any rain showers around. Just a few clouds along the horizon to catch some of the early morning light.
