I haven’t spent much time shooting in northwestern Colorado. It always seems like I end up in the more well-known locations around the state or in my own backyard. My good friend and fellow photographer Rod Hanna invited me to come up for a few days this fall and it just so happened that I […]
Alpine Treasure-Grinnell Lake in Glacier National Park
After salvaging a decent sunrise out of a mostly overcast morning in Glacier National Park, my good friend and fellow photographer Luke Tingley and I decided to see if our luck would hold up on a trip to nearby Grinnell Lake. It was raining lightly as we strapped on our packs at the trailhead, but […]
Mirrored Majesty-Sunrise at Oxbow Bend
I made a quick stop at Grand Teton National Park on my way back from Montana this fall. I arrived too late for sunset the first night, so I only had one full day and the following morning to squeeze in some shooting. I had been to the area only once a few years earlier, […]
Gentle Awakening-Sunrise at Swiftcurrent Lake
My good friend and fellow photographer Luke Tingley and I were a bit surprised to find out when we arrived at Glacier National Park that the road up to Logan Pass was closed every night from 9:00 PM until 7:00 AM the next morning. This sent us scurrying to rearrange the detailed schedule we had […]
Autumn Mountain Grandeur-Flat Top Mountain Panorama
The Flat Top Mountains do not have many towering spiky peaks, but the sheer massive walls are a sight to see, especially covered in snow. We had visited this location a couple of times before this morning to shoot the impressive view with the fall colors at peak. But after an early snowstorm moved through […]
Autumn Tranquility-Sunset in Steamboat Springs
The fall colors have been anything but predictable this year, especially here in Colorado. It seems that all the rain we had in September fooled the aspens into thinking it wasn’t time to start changing! Stands that were at peak color at the end of September last year were still green this year. Reports from […]
Morning Blush-Mount Yale at Sunrise
A couple of weeks ago I got up early to shoot the blue moon setting over the Collegiate Peaks here in the valley. I posted the moon image earlier. An added bonus that morning was what followed the moon’s disappearance behind the towering mountains. Within minutes, the clouds hanging over the peaks began to turn […]
Blue Moon over Mount Yale-Moonset in Central Colorado
Every day leading up to the full moon last week was cloudy with showers in the evening. That included the night it was full. I swear it is always cloudy when the full moon rises (or at least when I have an opportunity to capture it). So, I decided I would at least set the […]
Sunset Blush-Last Light on Mount Princeton
I couldn’t resist stepping out the back of my house last weekend to capture this gorgeous sunset. It was a typical summer day in the mountains. The morning started out with clear blue skies which soon gave way to the puffy clouds that build up over the Continental Divide. By afternoon the skies were fairly […]
Shadow Dance-Mount Columbia in Colorado
I assume the stream of waterfall images I have been posting are getting a little old (not that I don’t have a lot more to share!), so I thought I would mix things up today. It was a gorgeous summer day here in Colorado yesterday. The day started out with clear blue skies and plenty […]
