Stopped by the Garden on my way back from giving a friend a ride to the cancer Pavilion at Penrose to see if I could find the bighorn sheep. No luck there, but the view of Pikes Peak was kind of pretty. Well worth stopping at the visitor's center for a few shots anyway. Been … Continue reading Surreal Day
Lol... there is nothing like a dog to get you going when you are "Dog Tired". It has been a rough week so far. Four punishing nights in a row on the loading docks, two early morning dental appointments for a friend, another early morning appointment at the oncology center for another friend. Fighting off … Continue reading Dog Tired
If This Jacket Could Talk As luck would have it, I got a really good deal on a new Gor-Tex jacket the other day. Later that day as I went to zip up my old one it didn't feel right, looked down and the zipper was broken... zip all you want, but it isn't going … Continue reading If This Jacket Could Talk
Interesting day... Sitting at the Donut Mill collecting my thoughts as I realized that it was this exact day that my wife went in to hospice down in Colorado Springs two years ago. The cancer had spread everywhere it seemed and there was no more hope. On March 5, 2015 she passed, ending six long … Continue reading The Darkness and the Light
Sangre de Cristo, meaning "Blood of Christ", according to this article in Wikipedia. Here in Colorado it is also a rugged and magnificent mountain range, one that I have been meaning to photograph in winter with just the right light for a long time. I knew that recent snow storms and cold temperatures were creating … Continue reading Sangre de Cristo Mountains
Wow... been a long winter. Here on the north face of Pikes Peak there isn't much to photograph during the dark winter months. Between the winter and spring travels of the sun on the other side of the equator, Pikes Peak sits in the frozen silence of a season without sunlight. Although fascinating to watch, … Continue reading Spring 2017
As I drove home Thursday night in 15 degree weather in a fog layer so dense that I could barely see to drive, I was pretty sure that the Pike National Forest surrounding my home would be clothed in a mantle of magnificent white in the morning. I knew it would be well worth my … Continue reading Picturesque Morning Frost
The new year holiday is meaningless to me, based on nothing but someone's idea of a chronological date indicating an arbitrary division of time developed centuries ago. However, the Winter Solstice is real, something significant in the alignment of stars, planets, the sun and the earth. It is a mark in time that has a … Continue reading Solstice 2016
With the Christmas gift season at hand, I thought I would write a quick post about the ordering process for gifts and prints from my website. First of all, please do not be concerned that you are going to cause me to be overworked! Back in the day I tried to manage orders that people … Continue reading Christmas Gifts
I don't know how this piece turned out this way. I was going to write a long post on opening a studio. So I was going to throw it out and start over, but I thought, "This is raw stuff, maybe it will help someone going through hard times?". So I'm not even going to … Continue reading Out of the Darkness
