As Cold As The Rockies


The water of this mountain stream really was ice cold. Everything is so refreshing and clean, up in the Rockie Mountains. Grab a six-pack of Coors and enjoy the day.

Painted Dawn


While out in Boulder Colorado, I got up before dawn one morning and drove into the mountains. I found a road that led up to nearly the top of one of the frontline mountains and pointed back toward the east and the rising sun. It was a bit cloudy, but I did get this color for about 15 min. That is the city of Boulder in purple lower center.

Moon Over The Rockies


Last week I got up early and headed up Canyon Road out of Boulder for a sunrise over the mountains. The sunrise wasn't all that spectacular. Turning around I was thrilled to see the full moon hanging in the sky. I had to blend two shots to get detail in the moon as well as the mountain side.

Rock 'N' Stream

Saturday we took a ride to Saint Peter's Village. It was a nice day and the water was flowing wonderfully. I had a couple of versions of this scene. Some with dappled sun streaming through the trees and other like this one with overcast light. I preferred the saturation obtained with the overcast lighting, and as it turns out the first image I shot of this scene.
