Featured Photographer: Chase Harrison

Fall in the Rocky Mountains is my favorite time of year. As a photographer, what inspires me the most this time of year is light. As we all know photography is all about light. I for one am chasing the light all the time. What inspired me to shoot this particular image is just that, the light. I spent almost 3 hours at this one location and the light was changing constantly. It doesn't get much better than this. 

 Tech notes: Camera: Nikon D80, ISO 100,F/8,1/250, Focal length 175 mm

Snowmass, Colorado inspires me every minute of every hour, constantly awing me with momentary glimpses of nature’s gifts.  Today it could be a chipmunk, perhaps an elk or even a bear.  And before they vanish into the forest, I try to capture those fleeting, beautiful seconds…their might, their vulnerability. Today I was blessed with curiousness, a white-tailed buck staring straight at me.  As an artist, I strive to provide different perspectives, but on this particular day, the frame was set for me: only visible were his eyes and antlers, and that was enough to take my breath away.
