Kabul, Afghanistan

While most photos of steep slopes never seem to come close to what it's like to be there, the tiny structure in this one that I took while climbing to a mine north of Leadville, Colorado helps provide a little perspective.

In the foothills north of Boulder, Colorado, fresh snow and poor visibility enhance an already breathtaking landscape.

I wonder if this chimney at an abandoned homestead west of Lyons, Colorado was built with small stones out of necessity or as a work of art.
