Landscape Photography in Colorado: Paint Mines

We took a quick day trip to the Painted Mines Interpretive Park. It’s about an one and half hour from the Denver airpot. The mines are clay structures that look like they’ve been painted. The colors are from the iron in the clay being oxidized.

For this trip I brought the Sony A7ii with the Tamron 28-200mm lens.

Field Trip: 2019 Fall Colors Along Peak To Peak Drive

When we first got to Lily Lake there was a ton of fog over the lake. The lake is pretty small but with the fog we couldn’t see across. I love the way fog looks in these pictures.

The fog was a bog part of the day but I was still able to find color contrast. The reason I love fall colors is the contrast in those colors that work well together in nature.

This last picture was from a wrong turn we took. We ended up in the valley where the fog was. I think this is my favorite image of the day.
