sick

boy the last couple days I have been sooooooo sick, so no posts and no new photos taken, and we had a wonderful snow the other day that I missed being too ill to go anywhere. I still have plenty of photos from the past to share though.

This photo was taken this past spring when the snow started melting from the higher elevations. This was above Loveland Pass about 45 minutes west of Denver. I drove to the top of the pass than hiked up to about 13,000 feet on top of a ridgeline, there are 360 degree views of the mountains in the area, including two 14,ooo foot peaks which happen to be the two highest peaks on North America's continental divide (below)
a storm had just passed and as you can tell I was getting some dramatic lighting, especially to the west where the sky was turning pink.it was very windy and cold up there so I just took several shots and got back down.

Don't worry though the weather this weekend isn't supposed to be too bad, so I am going camping this weekend and with a 4X5 camera get some new shots.
