Welcome to my blog! I created this site in 2008 to provide a place for showcasing my photos and to provide information or links helpful to other photographers. As time has passed, I've added music videos and information as well. I will occasionally make comments, but will not preach or keep anyone from making comments of their own. Everyone is entitled to an opinion and I love the feedback! My goal is to make this website a regular destination for anyone who loves photography and music and wants to see what I've been up to.

YOU CAN LEAVE A COMMENT AT THE END OF ANY OF MY POSTS (all comments are moderated before publishing)

COLORADO BLUE COLUMBINE

LOCATION: Yankee Boy Basin, Ouray, Co
CAMERA: Bronica ETRS

COMMENT: Shot was taken in late July, which is like late Spring in this area. The Columbine is the state flower of Colorado, growing wild in higher elevations. At this location, Yankee Boy Basin, it grows in large groups, sometimes along side other varieties of wildflowers. In this basin, snowmelt brings silt down from the surrounding mountains into a bowl area where the rich soil and moisture grows abundant varieties of wildflowers, ferns, tall grasses, and flowering bushes. This place is pretty much a photographer's dream.

I think what makes this image stand out is the contrast caused by the flowers peeking through the ferns. Also the bottom flower, which decided to show its profile in order to be different from the other two.
(Congratulations! You've arrived at the very first posting on this blog. Thank you for taking it all in. Hope you enjoyed the journey and the music)
