Here are some photos from my trip to Great Sand Dunes National Park last weekend. I was fortunate enough to meet up with Mom and Dad there, and we had a blast. The outing included an optimistic and ill-planned solo+dog summiting attempt on Sunday morning. I left at 4:15am and was back at camp at 8:30am. Most of my time was spent sitting on my butt wondering what I had gotten myself into. That being said, it was all worth it for the photos.

I had a pretty fun photoshoot this past weekend. Well, ok, it was actually pretty grueling. But, as a pro, as long as I’m getting paid, I can’t complain. Check back for more photos later.

I wanted to play around with the whole tilt-shift in Photoshop technique that people have been having a lot of fun with. By adjusting the focus areas in Photoshop, you can make a photo look like a toy model set. It’s kind of a neat effect.

So, I’ve been working hard at it, and I’ve finally gotten my photography site off the ground – a few days ago, actually. I’ve just been so busy with it, that I haven’t had a chance to notify all of you dear readers yet.
Anywho, it’s a totally rad, completely awesome, one-of-a-kind, beautiful site, if I may say so myself. Check it out: asburyphoto.com.

Sorry for the “rhymy” headline. Just wanted to share this photo Julie and I took last night after we’d finished setting up and decorating our first ever Christmas tree. Once we got all the ornaments home, I think we learned a few lessons on color coordination and such. But, by and large, I’d say it’s a fine looking tree. And we’re so happy to have it in our new house. Murphy, on the other hand, is still a bit confused about the whole affair.

My MINI sat waiting for me in the snow this morning with a peculiar outgrowth of snow on the passenger side. Oh, that goofy Colorado snow! My new tires kicked butt today – the car drove like a champ on the ice and snow and I made it into work safe, sound and prompt.

The front range has bee gorgeous every day this fall, and I managed to grab this shot on my evening commute earlier this week. This state is beautiful in the fall.

I grabbed these shots along Hwy 52 between Boulder and I-25 the other day. The sunflowers are out in full force and are absolutely gorgeous.

So, just recently my beloved MINI enjoyed its fourth birthday and I decided to treat it to a spa day. Julie went out and bought a whole gaggle of car care stuff, and she and I spent the afternoon last weekend cleaning and scrubbing and waxing and polishing both of our cars.
I even went out and got it a pair of new badges. What’s that, you say? I don’t need no stinkin badges? Well, apparently Colorodo thought differently. So, I’ve had to give up my dear Oregon Salmon plates for good.
To top it off, I found a nice spot, parked the car, and got out my bags of camera gear and lighting equipment to take the shot it deserves. The pictures above were a couple of my favs.
All in all, this MINI has been the best car ever and I’m excited for another awesome four years. I’m amazed at how good it looks with a little srubbing – almost like it just rolled off the factory floor and still as stylish as ever. Here’s to you, MINI!
