Denver | Black + White

A few black and white captures from recent photographic wanderings through my beloved Denver...

Fireworks... Denver Style!

Denver threw their first official fireworks party this past weekend - sponsored by the Civic Park Conservancy - and it was a HUGE success!  The Colorado Symphony Orchestra performed a classic July 4th concert, the skies cooperated beautifully (nice rainbow over the Capitol appeared right behind us) and an estimated 25,000 people came out for the show.

For some reason, I think it is positively adorable how much Denver loves their City + County Building; the colored lights on the facade are part of their annual winter Holiday Show.  They made for a creative and original complement to the spectacular fireworks!

Already can't wait to see what they do next year!  

Denver Rocks!!

Denver Twilight

Excited to be shooting the urban landscape after so many years in the mountains. Denver is quite a gorgeous city, and spring sunsets with dramatic clouds are proving to be quite photogenic...

More photos to come!

Denver Art Museum | Daniel Libeskind

Finally got a chance to wander around the museum site in Denver, and it was well worth the wait. The plaza was quite fun to photograph on an overcast day, and made for some fun black + white and selective color studies. Enjoy!

SLC Public Library

Moshe Safdie Architects designed this gorgeous modern Library in the heart of Salt Lake City. I have actually returned to SLC for the sole purpose of visiting the library again - it is THAT compelling! Great public gathering spaces; intimate book carols in a swooping architecture feature which allows spaces to be private but also visually engaged with the more public areas which they overlook; structure to respond to the area's seismic activity; stunning overlapping and interlocking spaces, stairs and features... it is truly a building to be experienced through the journey. Hopefully a few photos will tempt you to visit next time you are near!
