As the first major snowstorm cleared out last night it left a hefty dumping of snow and extremely frigid temperatures this morning. Hoping to capture the fresh snow I awoke earlier than normal and ventured out. The temperature in my Jeep read 16F and with stiff wind from the West it felt more like in the single temperatures. The first …

First Snow
The first major snowstorm of the season hit late last night and early today. Having the urge to capture the fresh snow I brought along my camera gear today with the hopes of taking some photos. With a rather light workload today I decided to leave work early and head down towards Eldorado Canyon State Park. As I arrived at the …
Gold Canyon
Early this morning I drove into Eldorado Canyon to see how the Autumn colors were fairing. The colors were pretty good compared to the last few years and luckily the ever present wind in the canyon didn’t down all the leaves yet. Taking a few photos I decided to come back in the afternoon, when the sun would be illuminating …
Creek Light
Before heading into work I caught the sunrise along South Boulder Creek near the Mesa Trailhead. Thinking it wouldn’t be too cold this dawn I was surprised to find myself in a stiff cold wind. Taking photos for only a little bit of time I soon retreated to the warmth of my Jeep and out of the cold wind. It sure looks like the season of Autumn …
Hazy Morning
After spending most of Saturday working on the website, I had the itch to capture some new images this morning.

Spring Snow
After waking up today I noticed that it had snowed a few inches the night before. It didn’t really dawn upon me to go out and photograph until I caught a glimpse of the sunrise….. AMAZING! The light was so serene on the fresh snow and I kicked myself for missing the peak of the sunrise. After hurrying out the door I …
Morning in Eldorado
After waiting more than a week I finally received my new camera. Although I originally planned on buying the 5DmarkII (21mp) I had to settle for the Canon 50D (15.1mp) and 24-105L f4 lens. But seeing that I was recently laid off I was happy to get at least some new camera gear. Overall the camera is a nice upgrade …
True Eldorado
My father and I decided to check out the area around Eldorado Canyon this morning. The Fall colors are sure in full swing – both outside and inside the canyon.
