Sunset from the Colorado State Capitol Size:24"x36" leaving me better prepared as

leaving me better prepared as I head back to the area this spring

This allows the viewer to have a sense of place but puts the attention on the snow in the fresh spring growth

however usually by Memorial Day Weekend it is open again connecting Estes Park with Grand Lake

The tree above is one I first found in early 2008 and went looking for it in the snow

Visiting a salvage yard to photograph can be an interesting adventure

Sunset from the Colorado State Capitol Size:24"x36" leaving me better prepared asAs I was walking past the State Capitol I decided to stop and capture an image of the sunset. I have used this perspective in the past couple of years to capture the change of seasons as well as the morning light against the Rocky Mountains. With the sun setting to the southeast this time of year it allowed a little of a gradient of the darkening evening skies framed by the architecture of the building itself.
