Ten tips for a successful snowshoe hike in the Colorado high country

Little experiment here... I wrote all this good stuff for an online news agency called the Examiner a few years ago and suddenly without warning they went out of business and all my articles just disappeared 😦 Luckily I wrote most of them in open office and saved them. Today fresh snow and Facebook reminded … Continue reading Ten tips for a successful snowshoe hike in the Colorado high country

Mountain Sunsets

I have been recording some beautiful sunsets over Cripple Creek for some time now, only with my phone, too lazy to really get out and get the best location and shoot with my good camera. Finally got the chance yesterday and I think I got some good ones 🙂 The views of the western mountains … Continue reading Mountain Sunsets

Cyber Monday

Thanksgiving 2017

Thanksgiving, ​This day in November of the year 1621, when the newly arrived Pilgrims and the Wampanoag Indians gathered at Plymouth to give thanks to the Almighty for their survival and a bountiful harvest.

Once the colorful leaves of autumn hit the ground the mountains look kind of drab... kind of just like big jagged rocks. Lol... hence the name Rocky Mountains I guess. However we have been getting some snow here and there and a couple of days ago walking the dogs in the morning I noticed that … Continue reading Signs of Winter

It did make for a beautiful night in … Continue reading Top of the Ridge

Finally though, my truck is finally roadworthy and a day off of work coincided with a sunny … Continue reading Pikes Peak Autumn

My wife when she was still with us used to call Pikes Peak a "Cantankerous Old Lady", which may well be very true 🙂 However she is also as beautiful as she is unpredictable and she can be counted on to put on a different face every day. I have to carry with me my … Continue reading Different Every Day

Black and White

I wasn't quite satisfied with yesterday's image, it didn't convey the coldness that I intended. This morning I decided to bring it back up and use a Photoshop technique I invented some time back for black and white renditions of deer in snow. One time I was working on one of those blizzard images and … Continue reading Black and White

The Work

Shooting the pictures is the fun part that makes it all worth while, but for a stock photographer there is a considerable amount of work to be done that isn't all that much fun.  With the capturing of hundreds, even thousands of images comes the job of cataloging and editing and processing. Summertime would seem … Continue reading The Work
