Sand ripples caused by the strong and perpetual winds coming from the San Juan mountains in the distance. These winds created the beautiful Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado.
Atop the 700’ high sand dunes in the Great Sand Dunes National Park in Colorado. It’s quite a hike, but definitely worth the big views.
From my series about Woody Boats – classic wooden power boats like Chris Craft, Riva, and Lyman. Brian Cuthbertson looking happy as a clam on his Chris Craft. Being a mechanic and the owner of Cuthbertson Marine, Brian knows every inch of his boat, along with several others in Algonac, MI. http://ericfrazier.photo/Personal-Projects/Woody-Boats/1/caption
From my series about Woody Boats – classic wooden power boats like Chris Craft, Riva, and Lyman. This is Cuthbertson’s boat shop in Algonac, MI. The light, the well-used tools, the general disarray- I just loved hanging out here. http://ericfrazier.photo/Personal-Projects/Woody-Boats/1/caption

During a previous visit to Joshua Tree, I wasn’t able to get a decent photo of the trees, and on this day, there was some weird weather and cloud cover all day. It wasn’t looking good, then at sunset some clouds broke and the sun shined through, lighting up the trees while the clouds in the background stayed deep blue. I shot like crazy while it lasted and this was my favorite of the bunch.
I never realized there was this much water in Joshua Tree National Park. Back in the day, cattle ranchers built the Barker Dam to hold water for their livestock. Now it serves local wildlife and tourists like me taking photos from the nearby trails.
It took a bit of climbing and waiting for the right light, but so worth it. Getting down after dark was the tricky part! I just love the different layers of mountains in the background. It’s pretty hard to take a bad photo in Joshua Tree at sunset.
The hike up to Hanging Lake is a trek, but worth the effort for the waterfall and crystal clear water. Plus you’ll get a pretty good cardio workout. Near Glenwood Springs, CO, it's off that cool section of highway 70 that’s elevated and snakes it’s way through the beautiful canyon.
