Through the steam
Blocked by clouds and geyser steam the late afternoon sun lights the land on fire. Upper geyser basin in Yellowstone National Park.
Snowy Saturday Ski
Peeking out from the trail for a view along the Slate River last Saturday morning. The snow was flying and the snow pillows built up on the spruce tress were releasing with the slightest breeze. This made for several close calls along the way but luck was on our side and we did not get dumped on that morning. Photographed with my phone near Crested Butte, CO.
Towards the La Sals
Looking out from Needles area in Canyonlands National Park towards the the La Sal mountains on a somewhat grey and monotone day. It is amazing the colors that still come through even when the sky’s not blue. Utah, USA.
Looking Up
Looking up towards Hallets Peak in Rocky Mountain National Park on a fine winter day.

The sun breaking through the clouds to reflect on itself on a cold winters day in the upper geyser basin of Yellowstone National Park.
Winter Sage
Sage, a wise and stoic figure or a shrubby plant? Maybe one and the same. Blacktail Plateau, Yellowstone National Park.
Eyjafjallajökull
Hiking up high towards the summit of Eyjafjallajökull. Volcanic rock, sky,snow melting into water on its way to the sea and space enough to feel at ease.
Loaded
Bowing in tribute to the wonder of winter. Yellowstone National Park 2013.
Winter Sounds -1
Somewhere behind the silence of the snow and lodgepole pines is the sound of clear blue sky. Winter has a special silence that you can hear if you take the time to listen. Yellowstone National Park, Jan 2015.
