Colorado Adventure- Revisiting my trip from 2006
Colorado is one of my favorite places for trekking and when a friend of mine booked their trip I was eager to share with him what killer views he can expect. I decided to dust off my photo files from my 2006 Colorado Adventure where I spent two weeks hiking, camping, and photographing the beautiful state.
It was an interesting experience to look thru my 25 year-old eyes again and see how photographically my view has evolved. My taste was still the same in choosing my favorites but others that I had disregarded because they weren't perfect became a new challenge for me. Over the past 6 years editing software has improved significantly along with my skills. I hope you enjoy my 2006 Colorado Adventure as much as I enjoyed re-living them.

Rocky Mountain
When traveling, a missed flight and an unexpected 10 hr. layover can be the worst, but when you are an adventure lover and your layover is in Denver, Colorado it is an awesome opportunity. When the travel gods extended my return trip from a commercial shoot, my second shooter David and I decided to take advantage of this layover and head to the mountains. We jumped in a car with a map in hand and headed to the Rockies. Despite being tired from our recent hard week of shooting there was an electricity pulsing through us as we had the windows down and the music up, knowing where ever this road took us it was going to be to incredible view. The mountains grew bigger and bigger as we approached and we veered off at the first scenic view spot. It was incredible, the air was crisp and smelled of pine and the sun danced behind the clouds.
We hung out long enough to see the sunset and headed to a delicious dinner in Denver. We may have had to take a red eye with 1 more connecting flight before we finally made it back to NewYork, but our escape from the airport made it bearable.

South Africa
My South African adventures consisted kicked off with road tripping down the coast from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town. The coastal towns were charming and beautiful, the beaches were inviting and the water clear blue and chilly. Table Mountain in Cape Town held an amazing view of the city and the oceans. We than headed along the western coast to Cederburg where the stars brightly illuminated the warm summer nights. We drove thru the endless vineyards of wine country and lastly through the mountains of the Karoo. The Karoo's landscape was stunning and reminded me of being out west but with a wilder vibe. My favorite part was the safaris because of amazing animal sightings. To see a giraffe walking in the distance or have a herd of elephants walk right around your vehicle, or watching a lion eating its latest kill is amazing.
What an incredible place!
