Fall Colors - Boulder Mountain, Utah

This is an image I captured while walking along a trail on Boulder Mountain, Utah. I used a 135 mm lens to compress the depth of field. I love the symmetry, color and abstraction in this image!

An example of (bad) timing

Here are two images from a recent trip to the South Mule Canyon Ruins of Southern Utah. This is a site that is best photographed in the early/mid morning hours. I arrived at about 2 pm to find the famous 'House on Fire' ruin in partial sun. This creates a high dynamic contrast sitation that is undesireable. The second image is at the same time but in a total shade area to show the difference of both impact and even tonalities. Today's lesson: Timing is Everything!

Albuqurque, New Mexico

This is an image captured recently in Albuqurque. I was fascinated by the organic shapes and the 'window' to the sky here. This is a composite with the sky inserted from another image and then sepia toned. Like.
