I couldn't help but notice these trees while hiking one day. Claiming precisely the same spot in a national forest of nearly one million acres, it seemed the two souls could not have been more close, nor their fates more intertwined. Having been spurned and finally dumped by yet another lover only the day before, romance of any kind was far from my thoughts. I was sure I would never look at another woman again.

But there they were: a mature, full-figured aspen with a limber young pine, seemingly inseparable. Each bore its own sweet fragrance in a wood teeming with life. Unafraid, unashamed, they stood there in plain view. They had obviously been cohabitating for quite some time. The showy aspen looked elegant and refined with its satin white bark and golden-leafed splendor. Its vigorous young suitor, tenderly clutching the fallen leaves of its betrothed with clingy evergreen needles, strained skyward to meet in an arboreal embrace.

My eyes averted, now pining for love...

Based in Colorado Springs, Colorado USA, I'm a nature and landscape photographer primarily focused on the Colorado Rocky Mountains. Working in both color and black and white, I use a variety of photographic techniques to capture the many moods of mountain landscapes, from intimate perspectives to grand vistas, in locations both iconic and seldom-visited. My goal is to produce images with vivid colors, high dynamic range, and compelling compositions. Longer lens focal lengths are preferred to bring the viewer closer into the scene, requiring every available pixel to help tell the story. Thank you for visiting the site. I hope you enjoy my work.
