Got some good hiking in this morning, now working on staying ahead of the curve by getting some more winter pictures done. Have to say, these images of our Mount Elbert winter hike in January of 2016 have to be some of the most memorable shots I have ever taken. It was a beautiful morning … Continue reading Rocky Mountain Winter
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
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
The weekend before the big Fourth of July holiday week, also the time for the mass migration of city people to the mountains... Lol, the tourists are like, "where are all the fireworks booths"? Mountain people... there aren't any, we kind of frown upon burning down the mountains for entertainment. My town is on a … Continue reading Hiding in My Cave
Totally resisting going out into the world this morning. Monday on the job getting harder and harder to face... After three days off from my unfortunate necessary supplemental job, the old body feels mostly like I haven't been run over by a truck and I am not looking forward to the return of the pain. … Continue reading Ebb and Flow
Nothing new to see on this morning's hike... the peak looked the same as always and I didn't get a chance to photograph the deer herd before they headed up the mountainside on terrain too difficult for my two legs! So I just finished my hike and made my usual rounds to the gym, the … Continue reading More Gold Mines
Winters are long in the high country but I hope that this early May snowstorm will mark the end of winter 2017. Snow fell for 24 straight hours and the temperature dipped to 13 degrees on May Day Eve. Getting out the winter parka and relighting the pilot light on the furnace can be a … Continue reading Last Vestiges of Winter
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
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
