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

Facing the Fact
Summer is over and the crisp temperatures of fall are settling in all over the high country. I have uploaded a few of my best autumn color pictures to Alamy and Pixels.com but I have to face the fact. My style of imagery sells best on iStock. Despite it's shortcomings and small commission rates, the … Continue reading Facing the Fact
The Pawn Shop
This was a rough month, from sheer craziness including my ax wielding neighbor and the loose dogs to unexpected financial expenses including a few extra unexpected road trips in my gas guzzler truck. Picture sales always dip in the summer and I took a couple days off of work to climb mountains so needless to … Continue reading The Pawn Shop
Hiking Mount Harvard Colorado
Wasn't quite physically ready to climb another 14er just one week after Mount Massive, but I didn't get the days off I wanted and that's the way the chips fell. I didn't want to wait until the 20th to climb another one, so I called Ralph to see if he was ready to give another … Continue reading Hiking Mount Harvard Colorado
No Unfriendlies at 14,000 feet
I think I've discovered an axiom, there are no unfriendly people at 14,000 feet of elevation. I've never encountered one anyway! Perhaps it is because life's problems can't survive the thin air there, they melt away when the summit comes into view. Well anyway, I have summit fever again this week and am preparing for … Continue reading No Unfriendlies at 14,000 feet
Hiking Mount Massive
The 14,421 foot summit of Mount Massive Colorado was the latest peak to be checked off as done in Ralph's quest to climb all the 14ers in the state of Colorado.

Wrong Horse
We all try to make the best decisions possible with the information we have at the time. Unfortunately we can't always read the future and sometimes we make a bad choice. This is one of those times for me. I believed the information I was receiving and went with it by investing my images heavily … Continue reading Wrong Horse
Best of the Best
My Alamy stock image portfolio doesn't get a lot of attention in my pages, perhaps because it is the smallest of my image portfolios. But I'm thinking it should get more love! I have been with Alamy for nearly a decade now, and during that time I have carefully selected only the best images from … Continue reading Best of the Best
Life’s a Beach
The nightmare week of snow is finally over with, the sun is shining and it appears spring may be trying to make a comeback. I have to say, it was not a pleasant week, the snow was wet and sticky, horrible for snowshoes or ice trekkers. The colors were too dull and gray for anything … Continue reading Life’s a Beach
