What's New

Life has slowly been returning to normal and I again have some time to work on pictures. The Moab trip pictures are up (http://www.mountainstorm.com/travel.html). The 23 pictures in this set show some of the stark beauty of the Colorado River, as it winds through Utah and into Lake Powell.

There are a couple of new pictures in the galleries and I will be adding more this week. It is nice to be back working on images and making prints. Some of the new pictures will be on display right after Thanksgiving, at Wells Fargo Bank in downtown Denver. The exhibit is slated to begin the Monday after Thanksgiving.

You can also find some of my images in the web galleries on the Center for Fine Art Photography web site.

Where in the World is Mitch?

I plan to do a couple of day shoots in Rocky Mountain National Park and Mt. Evans this month. Mid-week the tourist traffic is not too bad, and most tourists don't get up for sunrise. Fall River road is open in the park and that is always a good shooting run. Lots of elk, marmot and, occasionally, big horn sheep. Mt. Evans is home to a good size herd of dahl sheep and there is a really interesting bristle cone pine forest about half-way up. If the weather cooperates, there should be some great shots out of these day trips.

At the very end of September, Susan and I head for the coast of Maine and Acadia National Park. A week after returning from that trip, it is off to China for four weeks.

Picture of the Month

While in New York City this past March, I had a day free to just wander around. Park of my walk took me through Central Park. It was mid-March and trees were just beginning to think about budding and some early blooms were on the branches.

This month's picture, Bridge in Central Park, was taken near the south side of the park, near the skating rink. It was one of those clear, sunny days, with good light, not a lot of people around and a chance to explore lines, shape and color with the camera.
