Too much traffic to go anywhere and too hot and sunny for picture taking today, besides I couldn't get past the troll anyway. Crazy as it is, I have a real live troll in my life... blond woman, fat ugly bleached blond chain smoking foul mouthed wretch of a human being about 50 years old … Continue reading Real Live Troll
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
This whitewater shoot of the Numbers Rapids on the Arkansas River near Buena Vista, Colorado is apparently my first editorial shoot since the big iStock / Getty unification project. I'm sure everyone else has already figured out how to do it, but I was really tearing my hair out for a while there! DeepMeta no … Continue reading iStock Editorial
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
Hot weather is fast approaching and a pair of Keen Targhee low hikers looked like just the ticket for summer hiking comfort. The Targhee is a durable leather and mesh waterproof boot with just the right mix of protection, weight and breathability. Colorado 14ers are my passion but summiting one of these beasts means many … Continue reading Field Testing Keen Targhee II Hiking Boots
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
Today I'm continuing my photographic journey through the last few years looking for the best images to upload to the Adobe Stock Photo library... Funny, I forget a lot of things from the past, but when I see these images I can pretty much remember the exact moment of each capture. If it weren't for … Continue reading Photographic Journey
The annual mass migration out of the mountains on Labor Day is in full swing... Thousands of cars, RV's, and camper trailers streaming out of the mountains on their journey back to the cities. Can't say I'm sorry to see them go. I know they are supposed to be good for business in the state … Continue reading End of Summer 2016
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
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
