site, built by my friend, Jesse Speer. Come on over and explore Colorado!

A
tremendous resource packed with cool information about Colorado roadways

B&H
The main mail
order shop that most photographers use. I have purchased virtually all
of my gear through them.
Pictureline.com
A great mail order outfit in Salt Lake City
Below are links are to some very talented photographers whom I have had the pleasure of meeting, and in most instances, shooting with. Every one of them has an incredible array of images, mostly from Colorado. Perhaps the best thing about them is that I consider them all great resources and outstanding friends.
BaconPhoto.com
My friend, Scott
Bacon, has quite the awesome collection of images from around North America
and Europe in addition to a number of travelogues you'll enjoy reading
through. Scott was a tremendous resource for me when I was looking for
lenses for my 4x5 camera. His knowledge of them saved me a lot of research.
Thanks again, Scott!
BrentMurphyPhoto.com
Brent has a well designed site with images to match
BretEdge.com
Bret has an ever-growing
collection of mountain, desert and adventure images. He is also another
Toyota buddy of mine, and we will be doing a number of 4WD trail runs
in the future mixing in a little photography while we're at it.
CoyoteImages.com
Dave has yet another stunning gallery on his site. He has
also recently purchased his first 8x10 camera. I will be intently watching
to see what he produces from that!
DoerzmanPhoto.com
Brent is another good
friend of mine, and fellow 4Runner buddy, who works at Qube Visual in Denver and has processed all most of my orders
I have placed there, and without flaw I might add! Known amongst our group
of photographers as "Ice Man" due to his wonderful ice fracture
shots he has taken. I really love Brent's approach on his site, in that
he displays nice big and crisp (minimally compressed in this case) images.
He has some nice trip reports as well where the pictures tell the story.
He also helped me out quite a bit when I was first learning how to shoot
4x5. We routinely go on trips together and always talk about them when
we're not behind a camera.
EarthtonesPhoto.com
Glen has a stunning
gallery of images with sweet light. He used to work at Qube Visual in Denver,
where I have all of my film processing done. The thing that really impresses
me about Glen is that he only uses a 90mm lens for his 4x5 camera. As
you can see on his site, he really puts that to his advantage and makes
it work for him.
EarthSystemsImaging.com
Steve Weaver has another outstanding, albeit fairly small,
gallery. His images of Banff and Jasper National Parks in Alberta really
have me chomping at the bit to get back up there.
GodsCountryPhoto.net
My friend, Chuck Peacock, lives in the
northwest Colorado town of Craig. He and I share the same viewpoint that
God's creation is the inspiration for our work.
ImagesOfColorado.com
Jan France has a bunch of cool miscellaneous images on
her site ranging from landscapes, wildlife to adventures. On a couple
of photo outings in the past, I have taken her on Schofield, Black Bear
and Imogene Pass roads (trip reports of each in my 4WD Trails section),
which she couldn't stop thanking me for. You're welcome, Jan! No doubt
we'll be going on future trail runs together as well.
JesseSpeer.com
My friend Jesse gets the gold medal for web design! I've
never seen any better. Absolutely incredible! Jesse is one of the premier
photographers in Colorado and has a countless number of excellent images,
which are very much eye candy, on his sites.
JodyGrigg.com
Jody is a good friend of mine who works in the same building
as I do, so we definitely spend some time on a daily basis talking about
our favorite hobby and where we're going next. You'll enjoy his his incredible
imagery from Colorado and the Southwest.
LeacockPhoto.com
J.C. Leacock is quite the accomplished photographer, with
his images being widely published. J.C. also happens live near one of
my favorite towns of Crested Butte and I usually stop by his place when
I'm in the area.
NaturesFinestImages.com
Tony Litschewski has one of my favorite collection of work
from those who I have had the pleasure of meeting. Incredible images,
and one who shoots 8x10.
MorningLight.us
Erik Stensland is a recent transplant to Colorado and has
a wonderful gallery on his site that is growing by leaps and bounds on
a daily basis. Literally! Living at the edge of Rocky Mountain National
Park allows him to take many quick trips to bring back more great images.
If you want to see RMNP imagery, look no further than his site. He was
kind enough to let me lodge at his place for a night before we took off
the next morning well before sunrise for a winter group shoot. Thanks
again, Erik!
RenéPirolt.com
My friend, René,
has a farily limited image gallery at this point, but I'm confident he'll
add a bunch more in time.
RickDunn.net
Rick has an incredible collection of images on his well
designed site. He has some of my favorite stuff from White Sands National
Monument, NM. Rick is one of the funniest guys around and is a pleasure
having him as a friend.
RussLowgren.com
Russ went to school at Colorado State and then moved to
Hawaii, where he was stationed in the Navy. He recently moved to California
to start his working career after the navy, but still considers Colorado
home and visits here frequently. I've been on a few photo outings with
him and he has some visually stunning galleries on his site of Colorado,
California and Hawaii that you will not want to miss.
TadBowman.com
Tad is a coworker of mine who works about 30 feet from
me. We've taken a trip to the San Juans and Tetons a few years back and
frequently talk about our favorite hobby. He has taken his photography
to a whole new level in 2006 and you'll want to be sure to keep tuning
back to his site.
ToddCaudle.com
Todd does this photography
thing for a living. In fact, if you live in Colorado, you likely have
seen some of his books or calendars in your local bookstore, many of which
he has given to me for free. How cool is that?! Thanks again, Todd! He
has an unbelievably vast knowledge of Colorado (WAY more than myself)
and is a second-to-none resource if you ever have a question about what
is where. Not a bad photographer, either!
TheIntimateLandscape.com
Chris Ebright recently
transitioned over to a newly designed site with images therein worthy
of a visit
Voninski.com
My good friend, Rich, lives just a few minutes away from
me. His stellar collection of black and white imagery is my personal favorite.
Yeah, he's pretty good at color, too!

RecapturePhoto.com

has one of my favorite sites showcasing many great images from the southwest
DesertDogPhotography.com

Mountains of Colorado this much is a friend of mine!
Bill
Langton
I first recall corresponding with Bill (Truckee, California) on
the Colorado Nature Photographers' site where he inquired about where
to shoot fall color. After giving him the link to my fall drives section,
we happened to meet a couple of times on our respective trips, and have corresponded a number of times since.
