A favorite bike ride for my son Martin and me, 3 miles from our South End home. The Boston Harbor Islands are in the distance.
The East fork of the carson river and its many fingers play a large role in Carson Valley. The sunset was rather spectacular this evening as well.

Carson River is a little low but that is expected towards the end of summer. Hopefully with a good winter the flow will come back.

On my 46th birthday, I set my alarm at 4am to capture sunrise over the Carson River before a morning of aspen photography. The sunrise color turned out to be a bust, but worth getting up for this view of the colorful autumn willows along the river's edge, and thankful for another trip around the sun! www.optimalfocusphotography.com
Feeling antsy in the house on New Years Day, I threw the camera bag in the car and just drove, not sure if I was going to capture anything, and happy just to be out. As the afternoon wore on, the low angle of warm winter sunlight against a cool backdrop of clouds looked promising, so without any forethought or planning, I just hopped out of the car on the side of the road to witness the changing light on the distant peaks of the Sierra, a beautiful beginning to 2021. This is a pano of 8 vertical images.
A couple of US Army Geeps bring a train of equipment from Kelker, CO to Fort Carson. After making the trip to Kelker and grabbing their train, they promptly derailed one truck of the second car. So after getting that taken care of they proceeded to drag the train to the military yard on Fort Carson for unloading.
There are two sno parks at Carson Pass, Carson Pass and Meiss Meadow. Either one will take your breath away. Literally; I was taking five steps and then doubling over to catch my breath.

"We don't do reenactments - this is how we live," he told me. He has lived in teepees for years, though the one he had set up here was a Plains variety, not like the local Miwok. His group (about 20) teach about at the early years of California's white exploration and settlement, and they were at the fair to recruit a new generation of enthusiasts.
