The Amigos Return

Three Amigos

For many of you who have been following my blog for many years, the Three Amigos are a familiar sight. But after a long cold winter, it always brings my heart joy to see them in the spring, happy, healthy, and still together after almost a decade of following them.

We Have Eaglets

WE HAVE EAGLETS - Mama eagle has remained in the nest long past the projected hatch date, so we assumed there were baby eagles to care for. But was it one, two, three? We didn't know until now, but I have confirmed there are at least two!

Encountering The Three Amigos: A Wildlife Photography Journey

Three Buck Mule Deer

After a stressful day of nursing along a doggy with pancreatitis I needed some fresh air and a couple miles on the trail. I hoped I would find some deer or elk to photograph during the golden hour, but it was completely by accident that I found my favorite mule deer bucks, The Three Amigos!

Winter Wildlife Photography

Coyote in Snow

Had a good couple of days with some winter wildlife photography using my mirrorless Canon R7. I considered making this post about shooting winter wildlife with a mirrorless camera, so I came up with this... It's just like shooting winter wildlife with a DSLR, so do what you did then. Which is also what I said when DSLR cameras came out. It's just like shooting wildlife with your SLR film camera, so just do what you were doing then. Lol, but then it was pointed out to me that not everyone started shooting wildlife with a 35mm film SLR, and some people never even had a DSLR, so there is that.

Another Bighorn Sheep Adventure

Bighorn Sheep Ram

It's the prime time of year for the bighorn sheep rut season. The weather was forecast to be obliging, so we loaded up the bikes and traveled to Waterton Canyon for another bighorn sheep adventure.

A Time to Adapt

Mule Deer Fawn

Ten years ago I was sipping my morning brew in my favorite coffee shop staring out at Pikes Peak, when I realized it was time to adapt. My photography business was centered around wedding photography and that genre had changed around me and I had failed to adapt. At the time I had recently moved to the mountains and was surrounded by abundant wildlife. Almost any morning I wished, I could take a short hike and would have the opportunity to photograph deer, elk, bear. fox, coyote, and many other small and fascinating creatures.
