This morning my Father and I captured the sunrise at Pass Lake near Loveland Pass, CO. We originally planned on hiking up in the Indian Peaks Wilderness, Lake Isabelle to be exact, but decided to get a little bit more sleep and venture somewhere closer. Arriving at the lake just before sunrise we had some time to locate alpine flowers and do a little birdwatching. As …

Waterfalls
One of the great things about Yellowstone is the fact that there are so many amazing waterfalls along the Loop. Each one has its unique characteristics and none of them disappoint. The first waterfall we stopped at was the beautiful Rustic Falls (47ft). It used to be listed on the park map but for some reason it no longer marked. …
Creekside
I met up with my brother Gabe this morning at Prospect Park in Wheat Ridge, CO. We decided to talk his dog Lucy for a walk alongside Cleer Creek. Along the creek we saw quite a lot of wildlife including at least 5 juvenile Coopers Hawks and a Six-lined Racerunner Lizard. We were there for a few hours before the heat made it …
Boulder Heron
In lieu of taking a lunch today I headed toward the Boulder Creek path to take a short walk. The first highlight of the day was finding Waldo! He was hiding just east of Broadway and I wonder if kids today even know who he is? Further upstream past 6th St., I noticed a Great Blue Heron slowly navigating the …
Red Rocks Afternoon
After working a half day today my parents and I decided to get out and go up to Red Rocks Park in Morrison, CO. I’ve been there quite a few times but usually to catch the sunrise. So I was rather pleased to get some decent shots in the mid-day light. Oh and I’m pretty sure that the snake I photographed …
Lookout Fog
Early this morning I awoke to try and catch a glorious sunrise and fog. Unfortunately upon arriving at Lookout Mountain in Golden, CO the fog was sticking around for a bit. After being a bit disappointed with the lack of sun I decided to do some timelapse photography. Its been more than a year since I tried my luck at …
Chickadees
Photographed a Black Capped Chickadee in the backyard today. One of my favorite type of birds.

Zoo Free Day
Once again I find myself so busy with work that I don’t have the time to get out and photograph… But luckily today my friend suggested that we head to the Denver Zoo. It was a free day and great weather, so the masses were out in force. I think its been about 15 years since I stepped foot in a Zoo …
Divide Morning
After waking up around 3:45 this morning my father and I headed to Mount Evans for Sunrise. It wasn’t until we arrived in Idaho Springs did we notice that that road up the mountain was closed until 1pm today. So in lieu of the road being closed we just kept on going on I-70. We finally entered a very foggy Loveland pass …
Hummingbird Morning
Early this morning I was writing a letter and I noticed a couple of Hummingbirds feeding on the flowers just out the window. I quickly grabbed my camera and shot through the glass and shades. I didn’t think they’d come out well..but I was surprised they did!
