Chasm Lake: Rocky Mountain National Park

There may be words which I eventually write, but in this brief span of time anything written would fall short of the breathtaking experience which is the ethereal locale below the monolith of Longs Peaks diamond face.

Horsetail Falls, OR

A trail-head on the South Side of the Columbia River Gorge begins the hike up this easy trail meandering behind, around, past, and above many waterfalls. Green ferns, trees, lichens, and other biologicals abound.

While bringing my blog up to date I will limit the quantity of photos and length of posts to that which is likely to hold attention. Being that this is the "information age" attention spans are best measured with micrometers...

Glenwood Caverns in Glenwood Springs CO, if you're near there, go there. As a caver even the tourist part is worthwhile, (However these formations were shot off trail after lugging the standard cumbersome gear through typical cave passages)

Lastly, enjoy the journey. Most anywhere in CO west of I-25 is beautiful, and come sunset take a few moments and smell the tundra. (Which doesn't smell, but doing so will make you get out of your Subaru)

For better or worse blogging is harder than shooting

I've always been able to keep up with my photo projects, however my photo blog is another story. This is a story which occurs in a place and time where internet is not as prevalent as it once was. Here there are many more obligations, here there are many more leads and projects, and of course there are the ever present distractio..... oooooh look shiny, must photograph..

Anyhow after settling in (relatively) to a new routine, or at least adjusting to the absence of my last, updates ought to be be frequent with a slightly different style.(And still refining the use and development of additional media)

The above are a random assortment of images from the far side of my lens over the past few months.
