"Family Time"...

"Nature's Stick Figures"...

I found this composition of reeds and their reflections in a small pond very interesting.

"Fog in Play"...

The fog was mesmerizing and evoked quite the mood, although what I enjoyed of this photograph is the contrast of the elements with the fog.

"Golf in Fog"...

Fog presents itself in many ways. I found myself immersed in this fog that rolled through the golf course.

"Bighorn"...

Heavy snow at Ski Hesperus Ski Area, Navajo Trail, La Plata County, Colorado.
For the 2023-2024 snow season, snow-goers were disappointed in the seasonal (temporary) closure due to the gearbox failure in the lift's transmission.
This closure allowed me a unique perspective of an abundance of snow without any human in this landscape during the season.
