I was having fun shooting these drops on the laundry line and decided to get in the shot myself.
Shot with a Pentax K-x, Vivitar pk-a/r-pk Macro 2x TC, Pentax da40.

I saw this guy at Hartman's today. He builds these bikes in Crested Butte by modifying a recumbent. Pretty cool project and the machine is amazingly nimble. I believe the company is ReActive Adaptations.

Hartman Rocks opens

Fun ride tonight with a couple of friends. I brought the K-x da15 combo and only shot a few, but the light was just right for this. I'm pretty happy with the result. A little chilly but great to be back on the bike!

I saw this composition earlier in the day and thought to myself "keep an eye out for this when the light is better". Well, that's what I did when passing by again later. I love the color of the willows against the deep blue Colorado sky. The Pentax DA40 lens really helps the colors pop and it's super sharp.

Thinking of Summer

They turned off the lifts at Crested Butte for the season and Monarch isn't far behind. Now I'm really starting to think about summer even though I may still ski another time or two under my own power.
This shot was from our favorite family camping spot off Ohio Pass last summer. A strong beam of light was breaking through the trees to light up this columbine on the dark forest floor.
