  • I headed up to Dinosaur Ridge to scout and take some images of a scene I first noticed a few years ago. The clouds were starting to move in so I wasn't sure if the weather would cooperate however you never know unless you are there. Once I found the location again I searched nearby for better areas and set-up my tripod be aware of small cactus in the area as well. As the sun set over the mountains I worked on some long exposures including the one in this post, leaving me better prepared as I head back to the area this spring.

  • The full moon is once again approaching and in the evening it is bright enough to experiment with some night photography. I headed to Golden, Colorado and photographed Lookout Mountain. If you have ever driven the road you know there are many twists and turns along the way. From a distance back I set-up my tripod and worked to capture the cars along the road just after sunset while letting the bright moon illuminate the mountain itself.

  • While out photographing one night, I headed into the foothills where I had a perspective looking down at a road below. Waiting for the traffic to head into the scene I captured a thirty second exposure of a mixture of moving traffic as well as cars waiting for the light to change so they may be on their way in the early evening. With some mild temperatures early this week as well as a full moon I have been out working on expanding this group of work as well this week.

  • Exploring one evening I went to the backside of Green Mountain and as I crossed C-470 I noticed the traffic flowing in the darkness of the night. Looking down at the road with my headlamp on I found an opening in the fencing and positioned my camera for some longer exposures in the area. It was just past the new moon so it was quite dark in the area with an occasional mountain biker passing me from their evening ride on the mountain. After spending some time at the location I thought of some new ideas to photograph in the area and will be back in the upcoming weeks to try those ideas out with my camera.

  • Connecting the Commons Park area of the city with Lower Downtown is the Denver Millennium Bridge. Dedicated in 2002, this bridge has drawn much use as well as many individuals photographing the cable-stayed bridge. One evening I headed towards the area to photograph with another photographer and even though it was a moon lit evening noticed the contrast between the mast and cables with the dark evening sky. Finding an angle to just bring in as much of the bridge and not the surrounding buildings was the end results of the Lines in the Night.

  • The skies have cleared and the full moon allowed for some evening photography during a November week in Juneau. With these conditions, I headed to Skater’s Cabin which is along Mendenhall Lake.<br />
<br />
Upon arriving at the parking area for the cabin it was cool and clear and the moon was just rising over the Juneau Ice Field. This allowed for a long exposure as the moon providing the lighting this evening. After taking this image I walked over to the lake which is showing some signs of freezing over due to the cold nights however there is still more water than ice visible at this stage.

  • On a November evening I headed to North Douglas and a vantage point that I knew you could see the Chilkat Range in the distance. Once again under a moonlight evening I used a long exposure to capture the scene. The stars you see in this image do not do it justice for what I saw just a 15 minute drive from downtown Juneau.  From this vantage point the mountains are the boundary between the Lynn Canal and Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve.

  • I headed up Clear Creek Canyon with a friend who is familiar with the area from his many trips here fishing. As we stopped at a parking area in the dark we climbed up higher to get a perspective over the road. Highway 6 can be busy with traffic heading to the casinos and other mountain locations west of Golden. However at times you can also find a lone car as in this image.

  • With the end of Daylight Saving Time this weekend this is a great time of year for evening photography and with that I headed out towards the airport area with my camera. When I first arrived the wind was blowing, when I left it was howling as a front prepares to head into Colorado. Just before heading out this evening I grabbed my fisheye lens which I haven't used in a little while and wanted to see what I could come up with using this speciality lens. I parked under the arrivals for Denver International and decided to point the camera towards the fast moving clouds above me capturing this image with a thirty second exposure.

  • It was an evening on the plains and I found some long exposures to capture and just as I was getting ready to head back home I stopped near a railroad crossing which I was gong to photograph. When I was getting out of the car I noticed the trail in the grass which mirrored the wispy look in to the clouds and worked to compose an image to capture this between the ground and the sky on this evening with the city lights of the Denver area in the distance.

  • It is always fun to not only watch fireworks but also photograph them, especially as you will not know what to expect during the show. On this evening capturing some fireworks over Coors Field, it is always good to determine if you want to just capture the displays in the sky or also an element in the foreground. Based on this decision it will really determine where you will photograph the fireworks from and also what type of lens length will be best. For a scene like this a longer lens (telephoto) works best since it lets you get close to the fireworks and capture their detail.

  • The start of a new year is usually marked by sleeping in late due to the celebration from the prior night heading into the early hours of January 1st. To start off 2012, I fought the urge to sleep in and woke up in time to capture the first sunrise over Denver. As I waited for the sun to rise it was obvious people were still heading home after a long night, however like myself they were treated to the clouds lighting this first morning of 2012.

  • In November 2009 I headed to La Jolla, California while in town for the holiday. With a storm having moved through the area over night as well as high tide the water was coming up to the steps down to the cove bringing man and nature merging in the scene. Spending some time to capture the scene brought me the above photograph as well as some wet feet from standing on the landing for a couple of shots as well.

  • In the winter of 2008 I was at Glacier National Park photographing and enjoying the scenery. After a day of snowshoeing up the road I was heading back and stopped at the west end of Lake McDonald just after sunset. As the night settled in I captured the quiet winter evening in the park which is quite different then being there in the summer.

  • I headed out to the plains for some images just after sunset near the airport. My plan was to find a good location with a view of the mountains and then see what the approach pattern was for the evening. The area which I selected did not disappoint nor did the flow of traffic from multiple airlines at that time of night allowing for fine tuning of the process prior to the light disappearing, the flow of traffic slowing and the temperatures beginning to drop.

  • On a November evening, I headed out to the plains of Colorado to photograph. Noticing that the wind was blowing out of the south I found myself south of airport to photograph takeoffs. It took a little while for a handful of aircraft to depart in that direction, but after a while I was able to capture some images of the lights moving through the night sky.

  • The weather turned a little over night and the morning was filled with some rain and more so wind along the San Diego coast. After photographing in La Jolla I headed down to Mission Beach and found a street light along the boardwalk which was still on even though the sun had been up for about an hour. With the overcast conditions, it was a different type of photography today and took advantage of this to capture the following image.

  • A spring storm is not uncommon in Denver and as most people left work to get home prior to the bulk of the snow fall, I headed towards Union Station to photograph the accumulating wet snow. The challenge in this image was the wind as my camera faced in a northern direction. With the wind howling, the vertical snow would start to build up on the lens which forced me to turn the camera and clean it after an image or two was captured. After nearly an hour in the conditions I ended up calling it a night and left to head home and thaw out.

  • This picture from Reno was taken in 2011 when the area was getting plenty of moisture including nearby Lake Tahoe with record snowfall. Playing with some different angles I noticed this puddle from the recent rain and positioned myself for the reflection image. Even at daybreak there were still a handful of people just heading out of the casinos after a long night of gambling.

  • It was a record high of 84 degrees on Sunday. It is spring in Denver. Yes, it snowed on Monday night into Tuesday producing scenes like this around the city. When I woke up Tuesday morning and looked out the window I knew I would be heading to Washington Park with my camera to photograph the tree I first found in a similar scenario on May 1, 2008. I did photograph that tree but decided to explore the park for a little while as the wet snow continued to fall. The tree above is one I first found in early 2008 and went looking for it in the snow. It was closer to my car then I remembered, which threw me off a little bit but after spending some time looking for a good angle created this image prior to heading home.

  • Just after Thanksgiving a good amount of snow fell in Juneau, and last night some more started to fall. With camera in hand I headed over to the Governors Mansion to photograph the holiday lights with some fresh snow falling. The mansion itself is in a residential area not too far from the capitol building.

  • I was out photographing during a snowfall in the Denver area. It was a quiet evening however one of the exhibits at the Denver Art Museum was attracting patrons even during this weather. I set-up my tripod at the southern end of the museum complex to photographing the people walking by as well as the city in the background on this winter night in Denver.

  • When visiting Skater's Cabin at Mendenhall Lake on a November afternoon, I was able to get a different view of Mendenhall Glacier. While it was sunny, there was still a chill in the air and the frozen lake shows that the temperatures were below freezing. While walking along the edge of the lake I could hear and see a couple of wolves across the lake defending their turf. It has been just a few days of clear days and nights with temperatures getting cold so wasn't planning on walking on the lake today but it won't be long until you could do so with caution.

  • In late April 2013, more snow fell in Denver. One of those nights I headed out after sunset to photograph and found myself along Speer Blvd. and Cherry Creek. After photographing in this area I headed over to Alamo Placita Park and found a quiet park on a snowy evening. With the dusting of snow the downtown Denver area received from this latest storm I was careful to plan ahead on the way to a scene as with this path in the park. Looking back towards Speer the path and lights grabbed my attention on another snowy evening in April.
