Stragglers

Just a few more pictures from our Breckenridge trip. These hiking trails were so nice, and were accessible via a short walk from our condo.

Base of Eight

In Breckenridge you can take their gondola from the base up to the base of lift 8, which will get you up to the skiing. In the summer the base of 8 is a small amusement park. There is a roller coaster type thing, climbing wall, giant maze, and a variety of other kids activities to separate you from your money. We went up to have a look around and ended up just hanging out up there all afternoon.

UP (in black and white)

I've been doing some experimenting with my new cameras black and white features, and I really like the results. Continuing my minor obsession with varieties on the views from the last post, only in black and white. There is something about shooting the scene in black and white, rather than converting it in Photoshop that appeals to me; it's more of a film experience because there's no going back. Expect more black and whites to come!

UP (in color)

Looking through my photos from Colorado, it looks like I got a little obsessed with looking up through the trees. Not that there is anything wrong with that; I thought it was a cool view. Not having woods like these in Kansas City, it was novel to me. I thought I'd collect them all here for you to enjoy.
