Garden of the Gods, Colorado Photography

An iconic red stone mountain rises up against a stormy sky in Colorado's Garden of the Gods.I have lived in northern Colorado for over twenty years and went to the "Garden of the Gods" for the first time last summer. I never meant to put it off for so long and when we finally did make plans I had my camera charged and anticipated getting many shots. Unfortunately, this is the only decent shot I got as that storm really did roll in and it poured the whole time! Sometimes it just goes that way. We had a fun day out anyway and ending up visiting Cave of the Winds. I am planning on going back for a second try this next year. Fingers crossed.

Colorado Woodland Forest Landscape

A pine forest in the northern Colorado Rocky Mountains takes on a serene glow in the foggy mists.Hush. Do you hear it? The silence that permeates the forest and envelops each branch, twig and creature. Listen. Breath. Sigh at the pleasure that nature grants us every day without asking for any return of favor. Now you hear it. Now you feel it. The beat of your heart, the whisper of a breeze, the rhythm of life.

Cabin Ruins in the Colorado Rocky Mountains

There is a stark contrast between an abandoned mountain cabin in ruins and the green aspen forest that surrounds it.Last September I journeyed over Pennock Pass on the way to Pingree Park in the northern Colorado Rocky Mountains. On the way is this abandoned mountain cabin. I had been here before and wanted to come back and get more shots. One of my earlier photographs, Natures Return, was taken here in 2006. The stark contrast between the cabin ruins and the beautiful mountain forest is evident. I am not sure whether I look at this as spoiled wilderness or as nature's amazing ability to reclaim. How do you see it? Which photo speaks to you?

My Photography at the Lincoln Center 2011 Hall of Gifts Show

Julie Magers Soulen at Lincoln Center Hall of Gifts 2011.

I must apologize for my absence here. Some of you may know that I moved this autumn, and then I jumped right in and got ready for an arts and crafts show in Fort Collins, Colorado that was a week ago. Here I am, the end result of my hard work and preparations. I am in the process of downloading new photography and will share the results soon. In the meantime, I hope you are healthy, happy, and enjoying your day. Cheers!
