Colorado – Keep Releasing Wolves

According to this update by Colorado Parks and WIldlife (CPW), no additional wolves will be released in 2026. Reasons cited are interference from the federal government and objections from western slope ranchers. Some lawmakers object to funding the program when the state is experiencing a budget shortfall. In my opinion these excuses aren't sufficient reason to override the will of the voters.

A Monochrome Start to 2026

Monochrome Pikes Peak Region

It wasn't something that I intended, or set out to do, but it seems that monochrome photography might be a recurring theme in 2026. A renewed interest in black and white film can be partially attributed to a road trip to Denver, with an inevitable stop at Englewood Camera to look at the used gear. On that trip I discovered an FD 100-300mm manual focus lens at a price impossible to ignore. That particular lens just happens to emply a 58mm filter size, the exact size of my set of monochrome filters.

Hope Eternal

Coyote Hunting

I wasn't going to make this post until I got the negatives, so that I could do the high res scans. But I got my low res scans today, and I'm excited enough about the results to at least put out a hint of what is to come this year!

Winter Wonderland 2026

Bald Eagles

The holidays are behind us, and I'm getting back into my photography routine. This weeks adventure took me to Eleven Mile Canyon, in search of our bald eagle pairs. Unfortunately I was only able to capture one sighting, but a new winter storm has arrived in the area, and I was able to capture a few ghostly images of the snowy landscape.
