Fall Aspen Grove

Aspen grove after a rain storm in Snowmass, Colorado. One of the most beautiful and vast groves I've ever hiked through.

Capitol Peak Sunrise

When I got here I could hardly see anything through the heavy fog that blanketed the valley, so I stayed the night in hopes of getting the sunrise. It proceeded to rain, hail, and snow all night. I woke up to a clearer scene and tried to set up from a wet hillside covered in aspens, slipped and fell into some bear shit, and just decided it wasn't working. The sky wasn't doing much either, but as soon as I got to this spot everything just came together for a minute. It's nice when patience pays off.

Piney Lake Sunset

Sunset at Piney Lake in Vail, Colorado. Mt. Powell and Peak C towering. About a week too late to catch peak fall color. October 2021

Crystal Mill Sunrise

Sunrise at Crystal Mill near Marble, Colorado. The mill was constructed in 1892 as a power plant for the Sheep Mountain Tunnel and Mining Company. There used to be a horizontal water wheel that generated compressed air for silver miners to use with their tools. Needless to say, it is an incredible place to visit in late September when the leaves start to put on their annual show. This image is a smaller version of the much larger one in my Panoramas gallery. If you would like a print of this, I highly suggest the larger version.
