I have long had a love for Black and White Photos.... so indulge me a little!
After my Sons Famous Shirt Photo shoot - we , of course, had to hike a little bit and burn off those calories (in preparation for ice cream!!)
These rock structures are amazing to me, and with the clouds and the sunsets and oh wow - I had a great time playing photographer!
These rock outcroppings are so cool - and the skies make everything so dramatic.
This area was known to the Arapahoe Indians -
\They called it the Land of the Earthborn Spirit
The outcrops in and around this area are almost entirely made up of Rocks of the Sherman batholith, which is a large mass of intrusive igneous rock that crystallized from magma, deep with in the earths crust.
Always a fan of trees - I am amazed at how sturdy they are - and how they will grow out of everything
Again - the skies - and while we were hiking our phones started sounding alerts . We had a flash flood warning and storms coming in - so you knew there were going to be some wicked cool skies coming....
Oh ya - and you had better find a safe spot!!!
This one just had to be in Color....
Enjoy your day!!
Very interesting photos. Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, Alycia..The color one is stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour photos always thrill me - as a fan of B&W, I'm glad you share many of those.
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful scenery. Of course, I'm sure you had to walk a ways to get there. And for that I commend you. I'm not sure if I could have walked half as far. Thanks for sharing.

Love the depth and definition in your black and white shots. The color shot is a subtle beauty that awakens a desire to be part of the picture in me.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteStunning! and thanks for adding the last one in color!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful scenery and photos! Is that land on your property? I LOVE that kind of scenery. You sound like my daughter (geology minor) talking about rocks - are you a geologist?
