My intention for this book is to take the reader with me on a journey to see the beauty surrounding us that we never take the time to see. If I can take your mind off your troubles for an hour or two and maybe even make you chuckle, then the book and I have both served our purpose. The best times of my life have been spent standing on a mountaintop, marveling at a field of wildflowers, or sitting by a stream while listening to the bugle of a bull elk. I have been blessed to live in one of the most beautiful places I have ever known--Colorado. As a photographer in Colorado, I have the opportunity to take "my best picture ever" around every corner. I can't help but look at this picture and wonder where my journey will lead me. What's on the other side of that hill? All I know when I start out is that there's a wonderful story around every turn that I can't wait to experience. I love to let my imagination run wild and go wherever it will. Please come with me now on a journey into my world. The Miracles of Nature.
