The Colorado Trail

September 30, 2009

Here’s one from this week’s adventure on the Colorado Trail near Kenosha Pass. I plan on documenting more mountain biking in the late spring of 2010 as I got sidetracked on several other aspects of biking this season. Enjoy for now.

Denver Derailler Collective #2

September 18, 2009

So last night I went back to the Collective to drop off some prints and only took one camera and two lenses. My intention was to give back to an organization that has given me their time and allowed me into their world with ease. This is something I have not done since a few years ago. I could most likely get up on my soapbox now and talk about how important it is to understand and give back to the subjects photographers follow. Now, if I could only work on being a better self editor. I hadn’t planned on making many more frames but I couldn’t resist the juicy light. Enjoy. Feel free to help me edit this down as well everyone. Cheers.

You know you’re a journalist when…

September 15, 2009

all you can think of when you see a scene like the one below is how much better it would be with a person in it. This one is from a fishing adventure outside of Leadville,Colorado yesterday. Enjoy.

Lookout Mountain

September 10, 2009

Four miles of sheer joy and pain as cyclists ascend Jefferson County’s Lookout Mountain on a weekday evening. This mountain has meaning to me personally. As I climb to the top the days thoughts disappear and I’m focused on one goal,finishing. I love this mountain. Here are a couple from the other day. I need to work the light more as the summer slips away into fall. Cheers.

Denver Derailler Collective

September 4, 2009

This week it is my pleasure to introduce you guys to the good folks at the Denver Derailler Collective. According to their mission statement and from the countless number of people I spoke with yesterday evening they are trying to put a bike in the hands of those in need. It is an open bike shop where one can grab a work station and fix just about any part on their two-wheeled vehicle of choice. I was a bit surprised by the sheer number of people taking advantage of this fantastic organization. Thanks for letting me into your world guys. I plan on coming back in the upcoming weeks. Enjoy.

14er’s

September 3, 2009

We had a number of visits this summer from good friends and family. One of our favorite thing to do with “out of towners” is to take them to 14,000 feet to experience the cool and clean air. Thanks for visiting everyone. Cheers.
