A couple weeks ago Jessica and I went up to Lake George CO for a staycation. Here’s some of the wildlife I captured while we were up there for a couple days. Hopefully more wildlife photography is coming soon.

Here are some macro shots from my back yard over the last couple weeks. Before long these guys will be gone and the cold will be here, I probably need to spend some more time capturing some of these little bugs.

Miss Zoe from a couple of weeks ago, a little photo shoot in the backyard. She’s so full of personality, and a blast to take pictures of.

A few pups from a outdoor concert we had here at a local park. Such a great way to end the day.

A couple of images I captured this last weekend while out of town for a wedding up by Redstone Colorado. Such a magical place up there.

A few quick pictures of Fitch and Zoe here. Playing around with some a new camera that I am in love with. Definitely hoping to get more day to day images with it.

We recently traveled to Phoenix for a wedding and I was able to capture these guys hanging out in the hotel trees. That golden hour light really helped me out also.

We spent part of our Sunday taking the dogs over to an agility park. Such a great way to tire them out and they had a blast, here are a few images I captured while there.

Same path different vibes. These two images are from my time in Ireland last year. If I remember right I think these two were were taken just a few hours apart from the back door of our hotel room.

I was at a family members house this weekend for a birthday party and snapped a pic of a clownfish in the aquarium. Love the colors and lighting here. Not too shabby for a quick shot.

A few images from the last winter. A nice overcast and snowy day made some amazing light to capture this little guy.

Here’s another flower from my time in Ireland last year. So much greenery compared to the plains of Colorado where everything is tan and brown. #nature #naturephotography #flower

Last year my wife took me to Ireland for a birthday trip and it was just a magical two week trip. I swear I never had any bad light, well when the sun was out at least. I loved the details in this flower with the setting sunlight.

A shot of Mt. Sopris outside of Carbondale Colorado. I was house sitting a few weeks back and headed out for the day to capture some landscape and wildlife images, this is one I enjoy quite a bit. Maybe this summer I’ll go back and get some flowers in a shot. #landscapephotography #photography

I’ve had this idea for while now to shoot some floating food. I had the chance this past week and came up with this image. Hanging donuts and getting them to stay where I wanted was quite a bit harder than I expected. Fun little shoot though!

Headed out last night to do some shooting and decided to see what was happening downtown. The U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum is fun place towards sunset with the way the light catches all the angles of the building. When I was there I saw these guys out making a music video. #streetphotography

My daughter and I Visited Multnomah Falls in March of 2024 during our Oregon road trip. One of the highlights of the trip was the hike to the top of these falls. Oregon and the whole pacific northwest was just beautiful and my daughter and I cant wait to go back! #landscapes #waterfall #Nature

Warmer weather these past few days has me wanting to get out and shoot some wildlife photography. Glad some of the cold is gone at least for now, these were taken May of 2024 in Glenwood Springs, CO.

Thanks my friend! Especially the tiny birds, little guys are so twitchy.

For sure! My liberty quarters don’t look near as nice. Pretty worn, but still so full of history!

I captured one of my favorite images last year during our trip to Ireland. We had just pulled over to the side of the road to take a look at the landscape and this little guy popped out of a bush next to us and I was able to snap a few pictures. #wildlifephotography #BirdPhotography
