As some of you may have already seen, I've created a Flickr site to share some of my personal favorite photos. I will continue to post all of my regular photojournalistic style photos of family events, trips, etc. here as I have always done, while my Flickr account will see only the best of those and also some more artistic (or photoshoppped) images that may not get posted here.

The vistas were beautiful in the afternoon too, so I stopped a couple … Continue Reading ››

Although there was no new snow and there were rocks and branches starting to poke through on the steep sections, it was an incredible day and a beautiful location!
