The Modern World

Yesterday was quite an adventure, started the day out in one of the biggest blizzards to hit the mountains in quite some time. Snow piling up so high and so fast that it overwhelmed my little chimney, knocking out the pilot light on the furnace several times throughout the night and into the morning. Which … Continue reading The Modern World →

Holidays BT

Have been struggling to come to grips with the first holiday season I will be spending without Trica in 27 years. Last year Tricia was in the wheelchair not able to do any cooking but my sweet friend and awesome gourmet cook, Heike, invited us over to her and Pat's house for a wonderful day … Continue reading Holidays BT →

Four Thousand

Last March three thousand images in my iStock / Getty was my goal for 2015. I was hoping I could make it to the whitewater festival in Salida and maybe even the Garden of the Gods 10 mile run. Much to my surprise my summer was far more fruitful than that. There were sports events, … Continue reading Four Thousand →

Sorting Out

Up until now I have tried to manage all my photography endeavors under one hat. However it has come to my attention that there is just too much traffic on my one main facebook page, S. W. Krull Imaging. I have wildlife advocacy posts there, stock photography, wedding photography, portrait photography, model photography, sports and … Continue reading Sorting Out →

Slight Course Change

Well that didn't work... my evanescent attempt at writing for someone else. My job as a college sports writer did not go well. Assignments and deadlines were given, files opened and a blank screen appeared before me awaiting my clever words. But the words did not come. Three days I stared at the whiteness without … Continue reading Slight Course Change →

Nocturnal and First Snow

Two o'clock a.m. and I'm wide awake, too awake to sleep and too tired to do anything constructive. Starting to wonder if I'm becoming nocturnal! I hope not, hiking at night would be a real bummer! Guess I'll write a blog. Nothing like throwing a bunch of random thoughts onto the virtual paper to bring … Continue reading Nocturnal and First Snow →

Trail Markers

Trails through the mountains are often wide, well marked and well traveled. However sometimes, in order to visit the most splendid locations we find ourselves off the wide trail, alone deep in the remote wilderness where the trail is not always easy to discern. Often in a mountain trail race tiny flags are tied to … Continue reading Trail Markers →

Photoshop

So I'm sitting around a few days ago thinking, "Man, it's a long way to pay day.". So the gears started turning and I was wondering what I could do get some regular income flowing in while I sit on pins and needles hoping for stock and prints to sell. That's when I got the … Continue reading Photoshop →

Changing Seasons

So I put the COMPLETE stamp on summer by finishing my Intemann Trail article for the Examiner. It was quite an adventure that took pretty much all summer, starting with a two and a half hour "short cut" from Red Rock Canyon over to Manitou Springs in quest of my press pass for the Pikes … Continue reading Changing Seasons →

Getting High

Been a busy week getting high... high on elevation that is 🙂 The week started last Friday with a six mile hike through the rugged hills of Section 16 in Colorado Springs with the Pikes Peak Adventures Meetup Group. The trail was great as were occasional views of Red Rock Canyon and the mountains of … Continue reading Getting High →
