A Little Bit of Denver Lately
 

I've been carrying around my camera much more and recently had company in town so photo touring was a must. Here are some shots from this spring around Denver highlighting some festivals and places around downtown. Enjoy this short and sweet set!

First let's take a visit back to the old rail bridge..

Framing the picture. It's hard to tell in this shot but the mountains looked amazing that day.

It was very interesting to see what people write on this. Some funny, some dark and some really deep.

You can probably get a good idea of what we were trying to do.. It just wasn't working.

And that's it! Thanks for stopping by!

Amazing as always! Thanks for letting me everything that I missed this weekend.

Nice set. There is still some good snow on those mountains!

Denver is looking good!

Nice! You represented the amazing Denver pretty well! :)

incredible dude. Incredible.

Denver has matured into one amazing city!!

Thanks for the kind words guys :D I must say, it has been turning into quite the amazing place!

Looks like you are putting that wide angle to good use. Love that first shot with the light reflecting off the rails. I was in town to visit friends last weekend and saw some of comic con craziness. Nice set.

Thanks! I've pretty much been using my wide-angle as my everyday lens. It just trumps anything else I have right now. Loved the comic con crowd. Too much fun!

Nice set! Denver is looking good.

Very nice and colorful pics! Thanks for sharing, RyanD!

I´ve liked the colours of those paintings in the floor, and the snowy Rocky Mountains in the background. Lovely!

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain!:tup:

Thanks for the photos, Denver is looking spectacular. Looks like lots of fun events going on as well.

Here's a small update for you all! (I've been working on a timelapse project you will be seeing very soon so, I don't have many one click stills from this summer / fall)..

Somehow I missed this the first time. These are really nice. Love the contrast in that second timelapse shot.

Denver is looking good

Holy crap look at the density in that 3rd pic of your second round of pics! That is impressive.

Pretty pretty nice.

Solid work. Looking forward to more.

Well I'll just make this my perma random Denver photo thread :)

I forgot to include this one in the last update. Probably one of my favorite photos ever taken.. --> Scroll for sunset greatness.
