 Seward Alaska

Last summer I was able to travel to a little fishing town called Seward Alaska.  This was for an article in Kayak Angler Magazine that I photographed and wrote. 

I hope you enjoy!

Colorado Silversmiths

    As a photographer, there are certain things that really catch my attention.  Funky lighting, bright colors, sharp contrast, and movement are some of my favorites.  Someone creating something with their hands usually involves a few, if not all of these things.  That's why I was excite to photograph 2 different silversmiths here in the Denver, Boulder area.  Sarah Schneider from Sarah Schneider Silversmith and Jimmy Freeman from Wabi Sabi Metal Studio.

Gunnison Colorado

After being on lockdown for several months, I decided that the weather was nice and I need to get out for a camping trip with my boy Sam.  Looking for some water to play in I got on Google Maps and followed the Gunnison River to Blue Mesa Reservoir and chose Gunnison as my destination.  

I pulled into the area just in time to find a campsite on public land just north of Blue Mesa Res.  

In search of some trout Sam and I headed to the inlet of where the Gunnison meets the Reservoir.  We caught a few little guys before an afternoon storm rolled in and pushed us off the water.  So we decided to head into town for bite to eat and to see what the trout were biting on. 

A curry dish fromTwisted Fork was just what the doctor ordered. 

Gene Taylors Sporting Goods is pretty awesome spot for any outdoor gear you might need and the sales rep was up to date on what the fish were biting on.  I ended up grabbing tube jigs in white and watermelon red for the next day. 

Then we went on to explore in and out of town and found it pretty charming.  There's a lot of awesome looking restaurants, shops and the locals are super nice.  The views just out of town are spectacular and you might even see some wildlife.

One of my favorite spots is the standing wave on the Gunnison.  It was good hangout spot with a lot of awesome people hanging out and doing what they love (surfing waves)

And back to camp for the night. 

The next day we headed out with new bait and some knowledge from Gene Taylors.  I had variety of trout follow my white tube to the boat however, when I changed over to the watermelon colored tube they started biting. 

Sam was exhausted and the afternoon storms kicked up and kicked us off the water again so it was time for some food and a beer.  

the dive is a pretty rad bar with a food truck built into the inside and plenty of beer choices on tap. 

My experience of Gunnison was great and I will be visiting again. 

Have a great day.

UFO's Over Texas ?

On September 23, 2016 I was at Colorado Bend State Park shooting long exposures late into the night.  After the weekend I went home and was scrolling through the images.  I noticed this strange blob in the upper left of this one photo: 

I zoomed in and was shocked at what was in the frame.  I looked at the frames before and after to see if maybe it was something on my lens or on my camera sensor.  I thought maybe it could be light reflecting off of a bug flying around but it looks really far away in the frame.  Here, check it out: 

Recently, more and more stuff is coming out about UFS's and now I'm curious.  What is this?
