The Week – Sunset Flower & Rainbow

We had a little sunset last Thursday that had the potential to be one of those amazing take your breath away kind of sunsets, but didn’t quite get there.  There was a perfect bank of clouds and they were clearing on the horizon which would let the rays sneak under the clouds and light up [...]

Sweet Sunset

I just barely made it back from my walk in time to catch the sunset, because of the location of the clouds the most color was off to the north so I had to wander a bit to try and find a good place to see the most intense part.

I love it when the fluff clouds get all lit up

This was off opposite of the sunset
They were doing a controlled burn a few miles away.  Whose idea was it to do a controlled burn in the middle of July?  That just seems insane and asking for trouble, normally they are in the early [...]

July 8th Around the House

Our lilies started to bloom and I noticed a big bunch in town in the plantings of the City Market parking lot too.

I went down to the end of Doc Adams to watch the sunset and there had been some lingering thunder storms.   After I took these photos I turned around and Pagosa [...]

Road Trip Day Two – Molas Pass

After going over Red Mountain Pass (11,075) you come to the small town of Silverton, by this time it had been a long day and we didn’t stop in Silverton at all.  I thought picture taking was done for the day but when we reached the top of Molas Pass (10,899) there was a big [...]
