Since I go many weeks without picking up my camera I figured something needed to be done about it. I have no illusions that I will actually do this ever day but I'll at least give it a try. Who knows, maybe I'll learn something along the way, or you might learn something about me.
There are no set rules for me to do this but I'll force myself to be in at least some of the photos since I'm never in any pictures.
Feel free to Comment on or Critique any of the images.

We finally got to a location early enough to catch sunrise and this is what we got. Overcast. Blah!
This is Maroon Bells outside of Aspen CO. It's a nice location and would have been great if there was light but this is what I ended up with. It's a three shot stitch with the 24mm T/S. The horizon is level, the lake is just closer on the left so it looks crooked. The color of the trees is just great but there hasn't been any sun to make the Aspen glow. Maybe tomorrow.
We also went to Great Sand Dunes Wilderness today. It's quite impressive but also needs good light which we didn't have. Now we are in Albuquerque New Mexico. We came here for the hot air balloon festival but it's storming and will probably be canceled in the morning. So we'll have to find something else to do tomorrow. There's so much to see down here that that shouldn't be a problem though. So wish us luck with the weather.
