To some of you, it may be obvious that I've been reading The Lord of the Rings to my children. Nonetheless, the title seemed appropriate to me here because it is pretty rare to be able to photograph the Milky Way when there's a full moon. However, on this night, the full lunar eclipse that was going on in the eastern quadrant of the sky at the left of the image meant that the Milky Way was suddently quite visible for about an hour. So it was a double treat to be able to photograph both a light painted lunar eclipse with Bill Bowman, but also our fair Galaxy. The lights visible on the horizon come from the towns of Nederland and Ward, Colorado.

Looking west toward the Continental Divide and the Indian Peaks Wilderness, the morning sky blushes with rose-colored hues from the vantage of Davidson Mesa, near Boulder, Colorado. The Full Cold Moon shines brightly over Mount Audubon (13,229 ft; 4,032 m) as it makes its way toward the western horizon.
Happy New Year to everyone!
Technical notes: 4 horizontal frames stitched together for the panorama, then manually blended with a 5th exposure of the moon in Photoshop CC.
Sometimes you get the spontaneous urge to go somewhere new, to see a new sight and experience new feelings. A desire not bolstered by any plan other than to live life more fully.

"...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE OVER THE NORTHEAST PLAINS OF COLORADO THIS AFTERNOON...
THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST AND NORTH CENTRAL COLORADO."

Evening stillness on White Rocks Trail, Boulder County, Colorado.
A week earlier when I first discovered this old railroad line, it was overgrown with taller grass and dead thistle. In the meantime, the property owner had done some cleaning up and the lines of the tracks were standing out nicely in the evening light.
DDC "Draped"
Shyla was draped in snow whereever she tried to go for the first couple of days after our big storm.
Dwarfed by the imposing front range of the Rockies and the Valmont power plant, BNSF 3132 brings a light Buck Local south through the outskirts of Boulder.
A scenic view of a storm on the Colorado front range at sunset with a beautiful rain shaft. These are fun to watch as they move around an pour rain down on a certain area. Colorado is one of those places where it can rain and be sunny at the same time. It can rain on one side of the street and not the other.

"Reflect the sunrise in your soul. Shine light and focus on your goal." Angie Weiland-Crosby
A few minutes in nature each morning helps to ground me for the rest of the day. Often times, I leave extra early for work just so I can wander the backroads on my way to the office, and I was delighted the other day to come across this old barn at sunrise. Have a great weekend!!!!
Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you:
But when the snow blows airborne,
The wind is passing through.

The wind is passing by.

Easter sunrise on Longs Peak, focal point of Rocky Mountain National Park. At 14259 ft / 4346 m, it is the highest peak of the northern front range. The prominent rock face aglow with the rising sun is the Diamond, one of the more challenging climbs in the southern Rockies.
This is a pano of 3 shots. (#4)
Arapaho Peaks (north peak, 13,502 ft/ 4115 m, south peak 13,397 ft) and Mount Albion (12,575 ft / 3,833 m) on a cloudless, blustery summer sunrise- the wind was gusting to 45 mph (20 m/s). Getting the tripod to hold steady was challenging; I adjusted the ISO up from my usual 100 to 400. The large partially shaded snowfield between the Arapaho Peaks covers the Arapaho Glacier, purported to be the southernmost glacier in the Rockies.

I noticed this little red barn years ago when I used to drive to Boulder from Allenspark every day for work, and every autumn, I always admired all the different colors surrounding it. Last week, I couldn't resist stopping for a photograph. Have a great day!!!
