Quick intro, I’m Chris 👋 and I’m a #photographer out of Denver, Colorado. It’s not my profession…yet.

I talk about photography and get into some tech stuff. I try not to go down the rabbit hole of more heated topics, photography can get heated enough. Anyway, here are some favorites of mine.

The camera and the snow

#photography #leica
The Leica SL3-S sitting on a car dashboard, covered in moisture from the snow, under a wet windshield A visitor center and a single street lamp stand in the dark while snow falls The edge of a building, with icicles hanging off the roof, with snow falling in the light An old barn stands in the snow with falling snow between the camera and the barn, creating a noise effect

Good morning, Denver

#photography #leica
The sky over downtown Denver is glowing bright pink in the pre-dawn light Clouds over the rides at Elitch Gardens are beginning to turn pink in the early morning light Commuters blur past lower downtown as the morning shifts from blue to gold light Looking down a road with street signs directing traffic north or south as the sunrise begins

I’m beginning to suspect that taking my camera everywhere, shooting day after day and night after night, learning how light changes a scene, learning my settings, and trusting the process…might be the secret to getting better at photography. 🤔 #photography

I took this today near Boreas Pass and this flag was whipping around in front of ominous clouds.

I only took the one photo, but it was enough. The fabric in the flag tearing, the dark storm clouds. And I desaturated the color behind the flag, to fully realize the way I feel about things right now.

Another Day

The sun rising behind the silhouettes of trees and houses in a rural neighborhood. The framing looks like the light and clouds are beaming from the large tree in the center.
