Lump in the Road
This ornate box turtle was sitting on a farm road in the middle of nowhere, eastern Colorado. I moved him to the side of the road after pictures but I’d be surprised if there was another car coming through all day.
Evening Pastel
Cloudscapes with sunset colors lighting them are always stunning, especially with water reflections involved at the same time.
Cold Running
The atmosphere on cold, rainy days makes it worth getting out and running.
Clinging to Existence
These Polypody Ferns are native to much of the northeastern and midwestern United States, clinging to damp exposed rock faces. They form a common sight near waterfalls in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Golden Grain
Prairie State Park in Missouri is small and out of the way and is filled with beautiful grasses.
Millpond Gate
This is an old millpond in what is now Rocky Mountains National Park. Finding old out of the way pieces of machinery like this is always exciting.
Any Nuts?
In a backpacking trip in the Black Canyon of the Gunnison a chipmunk came to make sure we’d cleaned our campsite.
Irridescent Wings
This is a almost completely un-edited photo, despite the white background. This was in a butterfly pavilion with white netting that was extremely overexposed when taking pictures of the butterflies, which provided the white backdrop.
Storm Receding
As a storm rolls east across the high plains the sharp updrafts and soft downdrafts are texture in the clouds.
Sunset Rays
Sunrays across a spring field filled with flowers. This picture was just as the sunset colors were starting to take over from the warm yellows of the golden hour.
