Golden aspen trees frame the southern mountains of the Sawatch range rising beyond the Arkansas River valley outside of Buena Vista, Colorado. It’s hard to believe that is has been over a year and a half since I last posted a new image on my website. In that time I have taken a look at […]
Delicate Autumn Dawning-Sunrise on Mount Sopris
Mount Sopris catches the first light of dawn through a veil of high clouds that create a peaceful feeling over the autumn scene outside of Carbondale, Colorado. Everyone was looking forward to a banner year for fall colors last year with all the moisture we had received throughout the year, but it ended up being […]
Autumn Artistry-Golden Aspens and Avery Peak
Golden aspen trees line a ridge with Avery Peak looming in the distance outside of Gothic, Colorado. I was on a whirlwind tour around Colorado this fall checking the status of the autumn color when I came upon this beautiful scene outside of Gothic. I stopped along the side of the road and had to […]
Autumn Valley Serenity-Sunset View of Mount Sneffels
A few rays from the setting sun shine through glowing clouds and illuminate the side of Mount Sneffels above a valley filled with golden aspen trees in the Uncompahgre National Forest outside of Ridgway, Colorado. I have been to this location so many times over the years that I can practically drive there with my […]
Woodland Grace-Nellie Creek Falls in Southwestern Colorado
Nellie Creek Falls gracefully steps its way through a forest filled with the golds and greens of early autumn in the Gunnison National Forest outside of Lake City, Colorado. I spent the last couple of days driving around the state checking out fall color conditions. A little out of the way, but high on my […]
Gentle Awakening-Sunrise on Marcellina Mountain
Marcellina Mountain basks in early morning sunlight beyond a lush green meadow in the Gunnison National Forest outside of Crested Butte, Colorado. I got a chance to get out and do some shooting last week over in the Crested Butte area. The skies were rather smoky at times due to a major wildfire burning down […]
Cimarron Glow-Autumn Sunset on the Cimarron Range in SW Colorado
I made a quick trip down to the Ridgway area in southwestern Colorado the first of October last fall in hopes of being there at peak fall color. What I found was a little disappointing. The colors this past year were a little different in Colorado as well as many other states. You were likely […]
Change of Direction-Shavano Falls in Southern Colorado
This past summer, I made it a point to visit some waterfalls in Colorado that I hadn’t been to before. A couple of those were not too far away from home outside of Salida. I packed up the camper and spent an afternoon and the following morning visiting two waterfalls on the North Fork South […]
Pink Winter Dawn-Sawatch Mountains Bathed in Early Morning Light
This is my consolation shot from what was planned to be some pictures of the lunar eclipse earlier this week. I had scoped out the location for shooting the moon over the mountains days in advance. It had to be up at a higher elevation or else the moon would drop behind them. I got […]
Colorado Gold-Golden Aspen Trees in Gunnison National Park
One of my favorite photography locations in Colorado is in the Gunnison National Forest west of Crested Butte. I have written about it on this blog many times. This fall I happened to be there when the aspens were at peak color. This grove of trees catches my eye every time I am there. Set […]
