So i can't say too much about the specifics on this colorado trip. It was all a bit rushed as i only knew i was going two weeks before. The first evening we visited the GARDEN OF THE GODS IN COLORADO. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL EVENING TIMED PERFECTLY WITH SUNSET.

THE SETTING SUN MADE THE ROCKS GLOW. I COULDN'T SEEM TO CAPTURE ON CMAERA JUST HOW GREAT IT WAS. MY CAMERA REALLY DIDN'T WANT TO REPLICATE WHAT WE WERE SEEING. A LOT OF CONTRAST TO PLAY WITH OF THE DARKENING GROUND AND THE GLOWING ROCKS.

WE DID A BIG OUTER LOOP OF THE AMAZING ROCK FORMATIONS. SEEING AS IT WAS MY FIRST DAY IN COLORADO, I WAS VERY WEARY OF ANYTHING THAT COULD BITE ME, INCLUDING THE MRS :)

LOOKING WEST TOWARDS PIKES PEAK

I THINK THIS IS MY FAVOURITE SHOT FROM THE WHOLE TRIP. IT WAS A GREAT TIME TO BE IN THE GARDEN BUT I WANTED TO RETURN IN THE DAYTIME.
