Loving where we live!

Grand Junction and Palisade weren't too picturesque during the winter but spring time is a completely different story! Everything is green and blooming and the sky is a beautiful bright blue with white fluffy clouds everywhere! I've never thought of Landscape Photography to be one of my interests or strengths but it is so beautiful here you can't help but notice the scenery and for me that means the potential shots.

Even just driving down the freeway I will notice multiple shots and I find myself wanting to stop along the freeway to get those perfect shots, not a good idea with a 75+ speed limit and two kids in the car! I am particularly obsessed with MT. Garfield! It is a gorgeous peak the protrudes up into the blue sky. I know it sounds crazy but I think it is one of the most beautiful mountains I have seen and it intrigues me.

So today after going to the store the girls fell asleep in the car and I figured it was the perfect time to try to find those perfect shots from the safety of the side roads. Unfortunately being limited to side roads and seldom used over passes changes the composition of those shots but I managed to get a few, though they don't even begin to do Gods work justice!
