The calm before the storm...

The Calm Before the Storm

I got a great view on a building storm on my drive home today. It finally rained!

Grey Heron returns...with a friend

Grey Heron Standing Tall

This beautiful Heron frequents the river next to where we run our dog each day. Today he (or she) brought a friend, the Black-crowned Night Heron seen below.

Waiting for the toss...

Our dog waiting for a treat
(click on image for a larger view)

Everyday we (my wife mostly) take our dog to a local dog park near Chatfield Reservoir. She runs off leash and her favorite stop is swimming for treats in one of the ponds.  The shot show her eagerly waiting for my wife to throw a treat for her to swim to. Such intense concentration!

This was a shot taken close to my house. I know they are old hat, but I love images of running water like this.

Mount Rushmore shots

Mount Rushmore

Here is a pretty traditional postcard shot of Mount Rushmore.

Mount Rushmore - Jefferson

These two were a little less conventional. I love the texture of the rock on the faces.

Cadillac Lights
These images were taken a a classic car auction I ran into today. I couldn't resist the abstract reflections in all that chrome.
