Colorado Springs breweries

One of the special tours we did recently, a team-up with a bus tour company and the nicest hotel in the area.  Colorado Springs has almost 25 breweries around town, these half-day tours focused on 3 of the more prominent ones.

I also threw in one that’s close to the office as I go there now and again.  Some of our most interesting spaces are old buildings that have been renovated and repurposed; we have a few breweries around town like that, they used to be hotels, schools, railroad infrastructure, etc.  I’m happy to see these buildings given new life instead of being torn down in the name of progress.

Riding

…and learning to ride.  At Flying W Ranch, Colorado Springs.

I took a few shots and it was hard picking my favorites.

Meyerowitz at ground zero

Remembering the work of Joel Meyerowitz who through perseverance was able to photograph the aftermath of the World Trade Center attack using primarily his 8×10 large format camera.  He was the only photographer allowed inside Ground Zero.

Here is a new interview with Meyerowitz reflecting on events after 20 years.

Ziplines

Part of the continuing birthday celebrations with my mom.

These are the ziplines at my work so I’ve been able to be up there a few times, one of the perks I suppose.  This was the first time I took my still camera over the canyons.

More screenshots from this Summer’s film processing.  I do it as cheaply as possible but the costs do add up.  Leaving the film out of it the total for me was still somewhere around $600 for 30min of footage.

Great memories, though, and hopefully I will get that documentary made at some point.
