Rocky Mountains, Elk and Denver…

Filed under: Photography, landscape, nature, pic-a-month, pic-a-week — Capn Scott @ 7:33 am

I got a chance to visit Denver, Colorado.

Interesting big blue bear in front of the Colorado Convention Center.

I took the opportunity to get up into the mountains and also visit some parks.

I didn’t get many pictures, due to the snow storm.  These are 4 pictures stitched together.

It was really cold and snowy.  Down in Denver, it was 51 degrees, but up in the mountains, it was 26 degrees and snowing.  Some of the roads in the Rocky Mountain National Park were closed due to the weather.

But, right before you get into the park, the herd of elk are grazing along the road.  I stopped for a while and shot some pictures.  They didn’t seem to mind the vehicles stopping and taking pictures.

I haven’t had much time lately to shoot pictures.  Hopefully, I’ll be able to get back down to Florida next week and finish up the final touches on the exhaust system and other lagniappe on the dive boat.  Maybe some more great pictures along the water…
