Autumn Colors in the San Juan Mountains 2021
Autumn colors in the San Juan Mountains were amazing in the fall of 2021, especially at the end of September through the first week in October. I was fortunate enough to spend a week photographing the green, gold, orange and red colors from McClure Pass to Cimarron, Owl Creek Pass to the Dallas Divide, and over to Ophir and Telluride...
Where to Shoot Fall Colors in Winter Park
Winter Park, Colorado, isn’t known for sweeping views of golden aspen leaves and Autumn colors in the fall like the San Juans or the Maroon Bells. However, my home-away-from-home still has some nice color at the end of September and early October if you know where to look...
The Blue Lakes near Ouray - a Beautiful Morning
* Please note most of the "trail" photos in this blog were taken with my cell phone. The lake images were taken with a slightly better camera :-)
Nestled in the Mount Sneffels Wilderness Area near Ouray, one of my favorite trails in all of Colorado leads up to the magnificent turquoise wataers of the Blue Lakes...
Grand County, Colorado - My happy place
Since I was a kid, I've been frequenting Grand County, and especially the Fraser Valley and the Grand Lake Area. and I'm shocked when I realize I've been coming up here for 30+ years. Where has the time gone...
My Favorite Photos from 2020
I think most of us will be ready to bid adieu to 2020 in a few days. The past 10 months have been difficult for many, and even tragic for folks, too. I hope in some small way, my photographs of Colorado's beauty can help just a bit, though I know it can never undo the damage - emotionally, physically, financially - many have experienced...
Colorado Fall Colors 2019
Autumn is winding down, and as cooler temperatures stream in from the north and the last of the golden aspen leaves dance back and forth to the ground, I’m left with some good memories and a computer filled with RAW files of Colorado fall colors images from the 2019 season...
Colorado's Grand Mesa
I think one of the lesser-traveled areas in the Centennial state is on the western slope – Grand Junction and the Grand Valley. A few weeks ago I had a chance to visit and old friend and Grand Junction local who, in his kindness, took time to show me around for a quick photo trip...
Maroon Bells and Summit County Exploring
In some of my blogs, I’ve mentioned my life-long friend, Matt, and the adventures we’ve been on. Every summer, we receive permission from our wives to hike and explore about once a week. Some of those trips are long day-trips and some turn into overnighters...
The Beauty of Rattlesnake Canyon and Rattlesnake Arches
It started several months ago when I was researching “off the grid” places to shoot. Colorado National Monument had been one of my favorite locations as I love the canyons and red rock...
Colorado National Monument - Colorado's Hidden Gem
Last week I had the chance to revisit one of Colorado’s less touristy gems - Colorado National Monument. Located just west of Grand Junction and south of Fruita, this national park sits high on the Colorado Plateau...
What Makes a Good Landscape Image (in my opinion)
I get asked about once every week or so if I put on workshops. While I have shared my experiences and tips in the past with others (working tours), and while think it would be fun (as well as make a little extra money), right now, between business keeping me busy and two young daughters I want to spend time with, I just don’t have extra free minutes...
