The SE Face of Russell Peak near Berthoud Pass.
Had a nice day of skiing on the Westside of Berthoud Pass today. I got a nice looking Panoramic taken with wide angle though.

Berthoud Pass
Thursday, January 5th, 2012Meeker and Longs, yet again.
Saturday, November 26th, 2011I wanted Dreamweaver badly today, but as the below image shows…it wasn’t in.
Dreamweaver is the right hand snow line, but it was not enough for a solo
The wind also aided my decision to take it easy.
The wind was alive up there, looking along Lady Washington's South Face.
Despite this, I found an excellent stash of ice below Chasm Lake. I monkeyed around for a bit with a little ice climbing and a little dry tooling. Good times!
The ice flows from Chasm Lake above. This was taken after my play time.
Along the base of the ice flows.
Naturally, I was alone and without a tripod. Therefore, I have no really cool self portraits of my climbing.
A Black and White with Color

First attempt at this Layer Mask business....not sure if I'm a fan yet.
Here’s what I did with Photoshop, the background image is the standard photo, then next layer is the BW. I colored the BW layer with Black on the bottom half (the color section) this brought through the colors of the original background….well, see if I get better.

Darkerened the blue, lightened the red and yellow to add to the contrast depth. Shot with the Canon 30D 50mm ISO 800 1/200 sec f/22
An afternoon through the Evening
Tuesday, November 15th, 2011
The afternoon started with a swim in the snow up a hill by Frisco, CO
The swim afforded me this shot peering into the Gore Range.
From a near by vantage, I snagged up this shot. Then, called it a day after a few hours of snow groveling.
Then, this evening or not really, almost this morning I got a few shots of the Flatirons.
I got a total of four shots in about 45 minutes.
The Full Moon to my back was a wonderful fill.
