Coming Out Of The Fog

Coming Out Of The Fog. This was taken on the high plains of eastern Colorado. They had a nice snow fall that created a heavy fog. I was able to get the photograph of the tree as the sun was breaking out of the fog. you can see the sky above the tree is mostly clear but fog is still hugging the ground. The effect was very nice.

Box Canyon Sunset

Ouray, Colorado is a town that is almost surrounded by mountains. This photo is overlooking Ouray, Colorado at sunset and looking towards the way out of the box canyon. Ouray is in the San Juan mountains of Colorado and is a beautiful town in a beautiful setting. This is a great destination to visit om Colorado.

All LIt Up

All Lit Up. This was taken just east of Fort Collins CO at Timnath Reservoir. In the winter months of Colorado, the sunrises are most spectular and this one was really enjoyable. You can see the reservior was mostly frozen and the ice ridges are on the edge of the lake. I was the only one at the reservoir that morning so i was able to see a beautiful, peaceful, colorful sunrise all by myself.

Garden of the Gods Moon

Garden of the Gods Moon. I was in Colorado Springs and drove up for sunrise photos at the Garden of the Gods. The full moon was setting at the time of the sunrise. Getting the shot between the rocks took a lot of moving around and a lot of photos. Amazing how quickly the moon moves.

Colorado Full Moon

I took this near a farm in Northern Colorado -- about 10 miles southeast of Ft Collins. The moonrise coincided with the orange and blue Dolorado sunset. It resulted in some beautiful colors. i wasn't happy with the clouds at the start but the moon peaked above the clouds at the time the sun went down.

Sunlite Aspen on a dark morning

Up taking photos at Maroon Bells near Aspen Colorado. It was a cloudy dark morning and the sun peaked through the clouds and hit just the yellow Aspen trees making a wonderful contrast to the dark clouds and mountains.

Peak Aspen Fall Colors

This was taken just outside of the famous Maroon Bell Park. There were a lot of locations there will beautiful Aspen colors. This location had almost all of the aspen leaves n the tree and changed to yellow. It had lot of the white tree trunks visible. I also liked how the trees surrounded the red rock formation in the center of the photo.

Full Moon At the Garden of the Gods

A full moon was setting as i went out for early morning photo of the GOTG. The small mount in the crevasse of the rock formation caused me to spend a lot of time there.

Fall Colors

In Colorado, the fall color is based on the aspen trees. Mostly the Aspen tree leaves turn a bright yellow. It provides bright colors with the Colorado Sun. This was taken in southwest Colorado where the Apsen trees are plenty.

The Moon, The Mountain and the Wildflowers

July is the Wildfllower season in Colorado. And of course, Colorado a great place to see the mountians. Throw in a full moon and a horse grazing and the results can be nice.

Light On the Golden Aspen

Golden Aspen Near Maroon Bells. More fall colors in Colorado. This grow of aspen trees was near Maroon Bells Park outside of Aspen. It was an mostly cloudy day and i was lucky to get the sun to come out of the clouds and hit this little area and lit it up. In Colorado, the Apsen trees paint the side of the mountains in a golden yellow during the fall. A beautiful time of the year.
