Yes it is John, one of the few places that is close with little light pollution.

One of these days, I'll have to get back to Colorado and take some pictures. Such a wonderful place.

Here's something to (hopefully) help folks that are experiencing brutal winters. These are some pictures I took while at a local arboretum over the Thanksgiving weekend. I was using a macro lens, but I obviously didn't (wasn't able to) get super close, but thought I'd post it here anyway.

Even suffering heat and lack of water the desert plants can be beautiful.
Thanks to Jesus for that.

Some really fun kids' portraits from a recent birthday party. Those were fruit kabobs... a great party snack!

Here's an interesting street scene that combines our love for both music and photography. These gypsies were great! Too bad it was so cold.

My ten year old daughter.... (you recall the little speaker building gal?)
One single word hasn't made me laugh so hard, in a long time.

I love it! I'll bet it seemed perfectly logical to her. Just like naming a steer "Steak", right?

Pig, I dub thee Bacon, 'cuz sooner or later you will be...

Exactly!

Out of the mouths of babes, just a few days after she wrote that cute little name, she commented on my bald spot getting bigger.

Going through some old travel pics..........

Spectacular!
Is photography your day job?

gfroman · « **Reply #3658 on:** 21 Dec 2014, 07:46 pm »

Thanks!
Usually just take pics on vacation for fun and the memories!!

Bob in St. Louis · « **Reply #3659 on:** 21 Dec 2014, 10:30 pm »

Wow. If that's the product of "fun and memories", I'd be interested in seeing what you do when it counts!

Needless to say, I'm very impressed with your skills.

There are a few here that should quit their day job and seek photography as their main profession.
So if any of you (and you know who you are) have been contemplating photography as a new path in life, "Yes". Do it.
