Colorado - Winter in the Denver Foothills
























"X Shot" information.
Camera - Canon EOS 5D Mark II
ISO - 100
F/stop - 18
Shutter - 1/250 sec.
Lens - 70/200 zoom


 For the last couple of weeks, I have been going out on small photo shoots. It has been cold and a little snowy. My locations were Evergreen, Bear Creek Park, Chatfield Reservoir and Roxborough Park. This time of year is nice, not many people around and it's really peaceful.  In all the photos, I took my light reading off the highlights.

I had been waiting to photograph some snow and this week we finally got some, not very much but enough to get me out there. With not much time availible I did a quick trip in the local foothills of Evergreen, Colorado. My "X Shot" was found at Red Rocks Park, at the thearter area. The fresh snow covered the setting area, creating nice leading lines to the red rocks in the background. Using a large depth-of-field, the complete image was in focus. The other thing I liked was, just three colors dominated the image.
