A Whole New Landscape

South Valley Park by jim.colleran

Canyon Song Trail in South Valley Park - Jefferson County Open Space in Littleton Colorado.

"Just Looking Around" has moved from Connecticut to Colorado - it's just one state away on the alphabetical list, but half a country away and a whole new world. From sea level to mile high, from seacoast and river valleys to high mountain prairies. But there are trails to hike, landscapes and citiscapes to photograph - maybe it's not that far off.

So far I've traded chipmunks for prairie dogs, and chiseled traprock cliffs for weathered red rock monuments. And that's only the first week. Let's see what comes next.

More scenery?  Check out Carmi's Thematic Photographic - Bushes and Trees.

    I went to college in Ct., and have only visited out West.

    I have to say the West is an awesome place for photography.

  4. I know the feeling, when I was 14 I moved from Mass out to Utah. Got random nose bleeds for the first couple of years here, but I can't imagine leaving now. That's a beautiful view there.
