Technical Storyteller
For the Friday photo this week, we head back to Moab, then south to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. The workshop my Dad and I were on took us to the Dugout Ranch, where we met Heidi – every bit the archetypal western rancher. She was kind enough to let us shoot around her ranch – this is just one of a really cool series of images of this iconic area.
A few years back my wife and I took a July 4th trip to Breckenridge Colorado, and hiked up Crystal Peak. This is a panoramic from the trail head – the sky really was that blue. Great day in the mountains, not doing IT work!
And a bonus picture below – this is Dandelions at the Wall from a trip to Berlin. The wall is now gone, with only a few sections left, slowly being reclaimed by the elements. I see them as a permanent monument to what happens when ‘the greater good’ overshadows individual freedom and liberty. So here’s to all those who stand on other walls and protect our independence from the forces of socialism and totalitarianism. Long may freedom ring!
This weeks photo is from a visit to Rome and the Colosseum. We had a chance to go down onto the arena floor early in the morning. I shot this as an HDR and processed it to create a surreal effect (the lens flares are real) – you can almost imagine the Roman sun god Helios looking down on the games through the upper archway.
