Thought it was going to be a pretty uneventful day... hiked up the mountainside, the peak was cloudy but not too interesting. So I decided to just make my usual rounds, the gym, the coffee shop, pick up some snacks... But as I was between tasks I noticed that things had changed on Pikes Peak, … Continue reading Stormy Signs

The Real St. Nick
Beautiful article by my friend Rachel 🙂
What comes to mind when you hear “Santa Clause” or “St Nick?” Is it a jolly old man with a white beard, big belly, and a red suit??? For most of us it is. You’d probably be surprised to hear that in reality St Nicholos was Greek, with olive colored skin and dark eyes. He did seem to have a short white beard, but there was no Christmas cookie belly or red suit ;). He was known for his generosity, but there was a lot more to his story than just that. Life didn’t seem to treat him fairly and robbed him of his loved ones at a young age. He went through a lot, but he used what he had to bless others.
Life isn’t fair for a lot of us!! I know it, and you know it. Life can be so difficult. Some of the nicest people in…

Lost Sheep
I've been pondering a new theory as of late, and after last night it has jelled in my mind and I think it is high time to put it down on the old electronic paper. I call this one the Lost Sheep theory, which could also probably be called the separated sheep theory but lost … Continue reading Lost Sheep
Pixel Art
I've been encountering a lot of confusion lately regarding what exactly to do with the Pixels.com landing page, so I thought maybe this morning I would write a little how to blog for purchasing my art there. Most of you probably just see the announcement and preview when I post a picture, and may not … Continue reading Pixel Art
Small Accomplishment
Ever since I read of the Intemann Trail last spring I have been wanting to complete the entire stretch of that trail between Manitou Springs and Cheyenne Canyon. The journey began last August when I used the part of the trail to get from Red Rock Canyon to downtown Manitou in order to pick up … Continue reading Small Accomplishment
CO State of Mind
Excellent post!
I love rock climbing.
If you didn’t know, I went to school out West, and enjoyed rock climbing a few times. Both in climbing gyms and in the outdoors. It’s practically a religion out there.
But rock climbing is really a great sport. Not only is it a great workout physically, but also mentally – and dare I say it — spiritually?
If you’ve ever been rock climbing – even if only once – you know, that you will eventually come to the moment. It is the moment where you’ve gone as far as you can go, comfortably. In other words, you’re stuck.
You’ve got your handholds and your footholds and you’re feeling really good right where you are. The only problem is that the next handhold is just a bit too far out of reach. So you freeze. You stop progressing and stay stagnant in your “safe…

Coincidence
Going through the nearly 8,000 images I captured over the summer and fall making sure I have all the editorial photographs uploaded to iStock for the big transfer to Getty Images that is supposed to occur sometime shortly after the first of the year. One of my major photography goals for the summer was to … Continue reading Coincidence
Alone
Alone is a funny thing, it isn't always the same. I've never had a problem with being alone, I'm at peace with myself and it is what it is. With that type of alone you can just head out into the woods and experience the comfort of nature, or you can head across the street … Continue reading Alone
Change Afoot
Well, here I am, up again at 4:00 a.m. unable to sleep for all the thoughts swirling through my mind. I am thinking this entire phase of my life is coming to and end and something completely new is afoot. I had not planned to spend another winter in this town. When Tricia passed last … Continue reading Change Afoot
