I took this shot while we were driving down trail ridge road in the Rocky Mountain National Park. To take this I was actually standing on the center console of our car and was sticking out of the sun roof.

If you ever have the opportunity to make it up to Rocky Mountain National Park just outside of Denver you will not regret it. My wife and I took a short 6.4 mile hike to see four different lakes and this waterfall (Alberta Falls) starting at the Bear Lake Trailhead. Excellent way to spend a day. This area of our stunning planet will remind you what an breathtaking place we inhabit.

This hike wasn’t easy. Not because it was long but because it was very steep. The ice and snow made it much more difficult than it should’ve been. The trail was narrow and slick. The high elevation made any effort feel like an extreme workout. Then, when I reached the top, one of the best waterfalls I’ve ever seen.

During a hike through the east side of the Rocky Mountains I came to this solitary river. It was such a lovely and welcoming surprise!

I spotted this beautiful bird in Estes Park outside Rocky Mountain National Park while my photo guide was driving us around in his Santa Fe. I was lucky enough to get the bird’s eye in sharp focus and keep the long lens still enough to capture this image from hanging out the car window. We saw such beautiful scenes and animals during our visit that I’m happy to share with the Unsplash community.

Driving through Rocky Mountain State Park outside of Denver, Colorado. Couldn’t have asked for a better pose from this big Daddy Buck. I was hoping for a surprise late in the day and got it. Driving along the road, there he was. I jumped out and got one of those rare shots. He looked up just in time as I clicked away.

Recently my family and I took a trip to Colorado to relive our days when we were a kid. We used to go there every summer and do the same activities and visit the same places each time. Eventually we grew out of it and started going to different places. 7 years later from the last time we went to Colorado, we decide to go again and I wouldn’t trade this experience for anything. We had a blast and I was able to get some pretty cool pictures along the way as a bonus. This picture brings back so many memories with or me with my family and gives me a sense of peace and relaxation.

I’ve seen this mountain 100 times and failed to capture the beauty of it at least 1000 times. It’s so close to the location I stay at in Silverthorne, Colorado that I always seem to have either no foreground or a bunch of buildings in the way. This day in the fall was perfect though. Clouds covered the top, which is a sort of bowl anyways but you can’t tell in this photo. The orange stood out in the front like crazy. It was an easy shot to capture. Just point and shoot. It feels like I waited forever for this shot. Finally got it. Off to get the next one.

Despite the full moon, we enjoyed tremendous stargazing in Indian Peaks Wilderness, near Nederland, Colorado. We sat for about 1.5 hours to look at Devil’s Thumb (on the left) and the North Star for this photograph. Elevation about 11,000 feet.

I wondered around this area for hours looking for different perspectives on these amazing mountains in Colorado. Turns out some of the best shots were the ones like this, not ones where I tried to get things out of the way.

Mountains in Silverthorne during sunset

I loved this perspective of the mountains through the trees. With how intense the orange was on the trees I had to snap a few shots with them in focus instead of the mountains to show off how crazy that orange was - think this did the trick.

This photo has no story, not for the shot. I was on the way through Rocky Mountain National Park when I saw this from the car window and I snapped a few shots. The interesting part of this is photo is the editing. Originally two photos with a bunch of water in the foreground, this photo was radically transformed. It’s not something I do very often but I thought a lot about this photo. I also tried a lot of different things. After leaving the photo and coming back to it, inspiration from this very site, and lot’s of versions I ended up with this.

Photography is based around light. Where it is and what it’s doing to the landscape in front of you. Since it’s so unpredictable, you can look at the same mountain range 100 times and never see something amazing, or see 100 amazing things. This night I just glanced out the window and saw some amazing light. I wasn’t sure at the time what the final photos would look like. I just had to do my best to capture part of what I could see. Just a bit of those crazy rays. Glad I pulled the camera out.
