Denver Amateur Weekly Photo: Eldorado Canyon State Park - Shooting Day Two with Joey (Image 2)

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 (Image 2)

Here is another picture of our visit to the Eldorado Canyon State Park. This picture is one of the many inlet caves that are all over the park. This area was once inhabited by the Ute Indians and they used these caves as shelter from the harsh Colorado winters. Gold was discovered in these parts in the early 19th century and because of the significant amount of recreational activities that this canyon provides and is known for, including tight rope walking and rock climbing, it is now a state park and can be enjoyed by everyone. This picture was taken at 2:30 p.m. with a resolution of 72 dpi, f/4 1/80 sec. exposure time with a 75mm focal length. I loved this picture because it came out so clear and detailed and really accents the caves dimension - no flash was used, because of the exposure time it came out perfectly.
