Autumn in the Rockies!







We're in the middle of a glorious Rocky Mountain Autumn, with beauty a foot, aloft, and all around. I returned from a trip to the Canadian Rockies and headed straight away to the Colorado Rockies, and at every turn there was jaw dropping light, color, dimension and texture, and I hope to share it with you soon....I'm catching up on wedding albums, and also getting ready for the holiday gift giving season. I received a nice compliment today from the photo professional as I picked up my prints -he said they were the best landscapes he'd ever seen.



I was also fortunate to be able to ride in "Flamebouyant" - a balloon at the Colorado Springs Balloon Classic -a wonderful experience, thanks to Hank and Deb Humistan! As you look at the attached photo, be assured I WAS inside the balloon, but my wonderful new wide angle lens, and a little flipping horizontally and vertically, gives the shot a new perspective. I'm also including a couple of entries into the balloon classic photo competition - I'd love to win that ride for two in next year's classic!!
