What's this blog all about?

While sitting in the DIA airport with a popular photography magazine in hand, I read about an amateur photographer who wanted to share his photos with others and in return have them share their photos with each other. The idea of having a blog where myself and others who enjoy taking pictures could share those images, while at the same time offer up suggestions, ideas and techniques sounded fun to me. So I decided to create Denver Amateur Weekly Photo where everyone is welcome to share their ideas, techniques and photos.

Here's how it works: Simply post your blog each week with a picture you would like to share (don't worry, there is no obligation to do it every week, but the more you do it, the more fun we make the site). When adding your picture, tell us what camera you used, angle you took the picture, the location of the picture, date / time and the camera settings / techniques you've used. That simple.....its all about having FUN.

IMPORTANT - if using a picture of a person, please make sure you have their permission before posting.

Eldorado Canyon State Park - Shooting Day Two with Joey

Taken at 2:54 PM at at Eldorado Canyon Sate Park here in Colorado this picture is just one of the many great pics I took today.  This was was with a resolution of 72 dpi / f'6.3, exposure of 1/250 sec and 170 mm focal length.  I was standing in the middle of the road that takes you through the park.  I really liked that separation of the rock formations and the accent of the evergreens from top to bottom.  For those of you who don't know, the Eldorado Canyon State Park just southwest of Boulder, CO is primarily a recreational rock climbing park, which you will see in my next posting.  Please enjoy this picture as I did not put any sunscreen on and got a really bad sunburn obtaining it and the others of that day.
