Photographer's Sunday

I left the house at 4:00am, drove to Echo Lake and hiked up to the Goliath Natural Area on Mt. Evans to photograph the Bristlecone Pines at sunrise. I had great clouds, but unfortunately the wind was really howling. So many of my images (like the one below) have shaky limbs - nice but probably not gallery material.


But it was a nice hike and it was good to be out. I'll post more images from this hike.

I also worked up a couple panoramic prints for a customer. This is something I really enjoy - not only seeing the final product, but really exercising my craft to squeeze the very best out of and image.

Cathedral Lake Trip Report

I've updated my Travelogues and Trip Reports page (http://baconphoto.com/travel.shtml) with a new look.
And I've added a new trip report for Cathedral Lake outside of Aspen, CO. This is a new trip report format which includes the usual slideshow, but also makes use of the Google Earth browser plugin. That's right! Google Earth in the browser. Now you can see hiking routes with image placemarks along the way right here in your browser - no separate application needed. The plugin requires a one time download. But its quick and easy. Let me know what you think!
