I’ve spent about equal parts of my life living i I’ve spent about equal parts of my life living in cities, and half living in wilder places. I’ve lived in cities giant and small, I’ve lived in the lush woods of New England and among the tall mountains of the west. I look back on my past, hopping back and forth and up and down across the country, and I know now that I moved so often because I didn’t know where to go. I didn’t know this existed. I didn’t know there was a place where the bold morning sunrise at 10,000’ warmed the cold nights frost off the backs of elk in steamy tendrils and clouds of breath. What a gift to know, because I could have easily spent this life still searching. (And the irony was that I was born here, so all I did was spend my life running in a circle) #coloRADo #elk

A favorite winter photo of a frost-covered couple A favorite winter photo of a frost-covered couple amid Yellowstones steamy thermal backdrop. Nothing does the magic of Yellowstone justice like a subzero morning and the massive amounts of steam coming off the hot thermal features. It’s a scene that you truly have to see with your own eyes to grasp the scale of awe of it! #bison #yellowstone

The fire completely changed their habits and I have no idea where they disappeared to for the rut. Of course they emerge the week that they all start losing their antlers. But I forgive you bud. I couldn’t hold anything against you when you bat those eyelashes at me. 🤎 #bullmoose
First came the hustle of the holidays, and it’s First came the hustle of the holidays, and it’s been dumping absurd amounts of snow nearly everyday since - both have kept me from getting out and taking photos. It seems like forever since I’ve been out with my camera! Today I was stir crazy and stalked birds in the backyard. Im pretty the sure the birds are looking forward to a break in the weather this week too! #stellarsjay
