Out on a cool thanksgiving morning to take some photos before doing stuff with the family this afternoon... #photography #landscapephotography

This one really hits the feels, especially after this past year...

Trying to use my ND filters a little more often... I'll have to come back to this shot later when clouds aren't covering the mountain peaks in the distance. #photography #landscapephotography #slowshutter

Got some interesting light behind this pelican as the rising sun just lit a bit of the grasses in the distance. #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

Was happy to be able to capture this ring-necked duck running on the water, not so happy to get the rolling shutter effect on the grasses in the background. But had I not used the electronic shutter I may not have captured this particular frame. #photography #birdphotograph #birds

I think I like late fall/early winter morning photography better than spring morning photography. #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise #Stunday #sunstar

A huge flock of geese came over a hill when I was out this morning, no doubt agitated by the family of bald eagles that were nearby. This is sort of a Where's Waldo photo in that one of these geese is not like the others. #photography #birdphotography #birds

Quiet mornings at the local ponds just as the sun is about ot rise is one of my favorite times for photography. #photography #landscapephotography #Scape #SensoryArt #Water #sunrise

Morning geese... #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

The temperture has still been pretty warm so we still have quite a few pelicans that are still in the area. #photography #birdphotography #birds

Up early and out to the opposite side of town to get some photos of this morning's sunrise. The clouds didn't stay this color for very long so I got there just in time. #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise

Sitting on the shore of a pond, waiting for the sun to rise, I spotted this line of pelicans flying near the horizon and thought it made a good minimal photo... #photography #birdphotography #birds #MinimalMonday

Captured my favorite duck this morning, the hooded merganser. I was able to get down to the shore and get a few shots but they got startled by something and few off not soon after. #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature #Stunday

Tree of birds... #photography #landscape #ClassicMono

It's been nice seeing the eagles down at the park recently. They've found new places to perch since their usual tree came down due to high winds earlier this year. #photography #birdphotography #birds

Down in Denver visiting some friends so got to take some photos in a more urban setting for once... #photography #UrbanGaze #ClassicMono #iPhonePhotography

Like many other photographers, I rushed outside last night when I heard there would be an opportunity to photograph the northern lights. Luckily I was able to find a spot just north of town. #photography #astrophotography #northernlights

Back before we lost all of the leaves on the trees... #photography #landscapephotography

Getting a shot of an eagle yesterday was a challenge with all of the other birds in the air. Just finding the eagle among all of the other birds was hard enough, then getting a photo without one of the other bids getting in the way was also a struggle. #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

The must have been about 500-600 gulls down at the park this morning. I like this shot partly because it's almost like the gull in the water is having a reaction to the two gulls flying by... #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

Morning snack… #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

Now that I'm getting up before the sunrise I can revisit my ripple reflections series I started earlier this year. I usually do these in color but trying a black and white for today. #photography #BWFri #ClassicMono

Not sure when we'll see actual snow, but for now we're getting some frost in the mornings... #photography #fall

Tree of fire... #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise

Didn't get the photo I set out to take this morning, but I did come home with this composition that I thought turned out pretty well. #photography #birdphotography #birds #ClassicMono

I was on my way to see if I could get a photo of a kingfisher when I heard these geese flying towards me - by the time I looked back towards the kingfisher it was gone. #photography #birdphotography #birds #ClassicMono #MountainMonday

The late fall/early winter ducks have started arriving so I'm hoping I'll get some good photo opportunities before it gets too cold and the water freezes and they move on. #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

I honestly can't believe that I've made it to November posting a photo here every day. As we wind down 2025 I'm starting to think about what I do for 2026? Stop with the photo a day and just post whenever, or continue? #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise

Halloween Sunrise... #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise #Scape

Something a little different today... #photography #UrbanGaze #ClassicMono

Haven't seen any of the snowy egrets in almost a couple months but found this one warming itself it the morning sun today... #photography #birdphotography #birds

Fall reflections... #photography #landscapephotography #fall

There's not many leaves left of the trees outside, and the fall colors down here on the front range of Colorado will soon be over and we'll just have some bare trees until things start growing again next spring. #photography #fall

Morning walk... #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise

I feel like this is a cross of nature photography and night time street photography 😅 #photography #birdphotography #birds #naturephotography

Morning fog... #photography #landscapephotography #Scape #AlphabetChallenge #WeekQForQuiet

Was backing up my car and pulling out of the parking lot when I saw this bald eagle perched in the tree behind me... #photography #birdphotography #birds

I feel there's many photographers that don't know that there are regulations about where you can operate a drone, or just choose not to follow them. In many national wilderness areas, drones "may not take off, land, be operated or possessed" - yet I'm seeing aerial photos from within. 😩

I was surprised by the number of pelicans I saw this morning down at the local ponds... last week I saw two or three and this morning it was more like 30. #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature

Came across this when I was out taking photos the other day... #photography #RockinTuesday

Very windy on the front range today, and I'd be surprised if we had many leaves left by the end of the week. Glad I took some time to get out this weekend before they're all gone. #photography #landscapephotography #fall

This morning was our first below freezing temps of the season, so decided to stay close to home since it was a little colder... #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise #StunDay #ColorADay #OrangeSun

I wish I'd anticipated the duck's behavior a little better and adjusted the shutter speed to better freeze the wing movement, but overall I'm still pleased with how this came out. #photography #birdphotography #birds #naturephotography

Fall mornings... Some trees are still turning yellow while others have already lost most of their leaves. Cool weather coming this week so we'll see how long it lasts. #photography #landscapephotography #scape

Morning reflections... #photography

Early morning fall colors... #photography #landscapephotography #fall

Happy duck... #photography #birdphotography #birds #nature #AnimalArtTuesday

The rising sun hitting the tree, clouds, and mountains... #photography #landscapephotography #ColorADay #PinkMon

Sometimes even 14mm on a full frame camera isn't enough to fit something in the frame. #Photography #BnW #Stunday #ClassicMono

Out at one of the local ponds on a cloudy morning for the sunrise and this spot just opened up that allowed some of the light to come through... #photography #landscapephotography #sunrise
