Day 10: For this assignment, I chose to photograph the front entrance of The University Center for the Arts at Colorado State University. This building was built in 1924 and served as the Fort Collins High School until 1995.

A broken dream –
where do they go
the butterflies?

Day 2: Establishing Shot
This image is from the section of Fort Collins, Colorado known as “Old Town.” It feels as though there is a unified effort by both the City of Fort Collins and the merchants within Old Town to provide visitors and residents a place to wander about in an environment that is inviting to people of diverse interests and age.
With this assignment in mind, I and my wide-angle lens searched for a street scene that would create an image that was composed of foreground, background, and a figure in mid- ground.
100 days…53rd day
The path is hidden
by Dharma,
invisible,
but memories of you
lead me onward
buson’s spring lll
On my coming back,
how many pathways are there
through the spring grasses?

mountain cement…abandoned
Entering Laramie, WY from the south, we found ourselves drawn to a site of an abanoned factory…walking about with camera in hand, it was indeed a photographer’s dream. Later, we learned that factory, Mountain Cement, was built in 1927 but eventually moved into a newer facility just north of the older buildings…
Currently, it seems to be an excellent site for those who enjoy the game of paint ball as well as for graffiti artists who express their creativity with concrete canvases.
thursday’s special: traces of the past 02
The iconic Loveland Feed & Grain, built in 1892, is a hub of artistic energy in Loveland, Colorado…well…not “is” but “was”… it is currently closed and shuttered.
Yet, recent traces of The Feed & Grain’s past can be seen at luckybrakelimited.com

If I’d heard
so much as
a water rail’s knock,
I’d have opened
the black pine door.
