Falling Waters
This post highlights two recent waterfall shoots. The first in an alpine basin, ‘Yankee Boy’ and the second at ‘Rifle Falls State Park’.

Wonderful Winter
Snow has been a little light this year but I’ve managed to get out several times with my camera, to capture some of the white stuff!
