    It was only me and Seaun, he was very thorough and patient. Did a lot of review and basics, which was good for me. Since it was only me we only did 1.5 hours not the entire 3 hours. He is very easy to talk with and a very talented photographer

    This photo had several interesting elements. There was enough water to make a decent foreground. The hot air balloon was the main subject along with the house in the midground. Finally, I was waiting for a balloon to fly in front of the Cheyenne Mountain background. The early morning light brought out the warm colors of Cheyenne Mountain.

This place in the center of downtown on King Street always looks different depending on the weather, time of day, wind...

    This shot was taken along with 3000 others images on my first ever photo shoot during Covid. I hired a model I had seen and had come to do pool shots with another Photographer and he suggested I hire her and conceptualize the shoot. I?m not a professional and had no props but I bought some fabric and I used my leaf blower to make that effect. I periodically go back to those pictures and rework them with my iPhone apps for varying effects. You can see more of my work on Instagram. That day creat

    Thank you for considering my photo for Photo of the Week! I have a number of bottle brush trees in my back yard, and birds love the blossoms when they bloom in the Spring. I usually see numerous hummingbirds and sparrows, but I saw this gorgeous bird one afternoon resting in the branches. I was able to get a couple of shots off before it flew away.
