Thanks
It would have been easy, convenient and down right
predictable to capture an image at Thanksgiving of the bird, the dinner table
or the carnivorous, tryptophan laced guests around the dinner table, but I
didn’t, that’s just not my style.
Instead this year on Thanksgiving weekend, I set off on
picture taking adventure and gave thanks to Mother (i.e. Mother Nature) and the
grand queen of the Rockies, the great state of Colorado. Not many states can provide you the vistas or
the golden hour colors as a November day in Colorado. When Mother Nature intervenes and grants you
sunny skies and 70+ degrees how can you complain?
This year I gave heartfelt verbal thanks and expressed my
true blessings on “Tday” to my family members, my dog and my 8,000 friends at
the Turkey Trot in Washington Park. I
spent the balance of the weekend taking images and enjoying the great Colorado
outdoors and appreciating the freedoms and the rights we have in this great
country.
It may sound a little too overly patriotic or semi-pedantic
but, there are days you just need to sit back, soak it all in and appreciate
the planet and the place that you are in!
I did however appreciate the way in which facebook allows us
to share our thanks like never before!
