This morning’s plan didn’t survive first contact with the moon.

Ride along as I leave Colorado and head into Utah, Nevada, California, Arizona, New Mexico, and back to Colorado.

Come along as I tour around the SW on a December road trip!

Join us as we travel to Wyoming and the Grand Teton National Park, to the deserts of Utah, and back through Colorado taking autumn images along the way.

Can you help me choose the best three?

It’s a long way from Colorado to Alberta, Canada, but it was so worth it!

Come along on my Fall Colors 2022 Roadtrip!

Fall 2021 found me exploring Southwest Colorado. From waterfalls to Dancing Aspen and towering rock formations, this trip had it all and all while being surrounded by peak Fall colors!

I had five days to squeeze in a speed run through NW AZ and SW UT. The weather looked like it could go either way, amazing or awful. The direction it took, only time would tell…

From the first moment, this trip didn’t go as planned. That’s par for the course, especially when dealing with Mother Nature. Despite that, getting to see/photograph multiple sunrises and sunsets in addition to quite a bit of wildlife, how could one complain?

My eyes were barely opened from a good night’s rest when I glanced over at my phone. “What’s the cloud forecast look like this morning?” I asked myself as I struggled to decipher the words on my phone. They were upside down... as was my phone. Awake? Nope.

The cloud predictions were setting up to be spectacular. “Could I make it to The Barn?” I wondered to myself. I thought I could, but there was literally no time to debate it. Out the door, I went!

Does spending three or four days breathing the clean fresh air in the backcountry, exploring around, and taking pictures sound good to you? If so, I am looking for a backpacking partner or two for next year’s backpacking trips! Check qualifications and apply!

Between aspens dancing in the moonlight, golden leaves raining down all around me, and the rock cliffs towering over me, this Fall color road-trip turned out to be quite an adventure!

Spent an evening scouting Fall colors along with shooting a sunset and a moonrise in the Victor, CO area with fellow photogs Dave Bowers of Red Cliff Photography and Don Savage of Don Savage Photography.

With Fall 2020 and Spring 2021 both fast approaching, it was time to get out and scope out where I wanted to go come leaf-peeping season.

From sundown to sunup, it was a beautiful evening spent among the bristlecones of Colorado!
