The day after Thanksgiving I did a family portrait sitting in Palmer Park, which is more rugged and "Colorado" looking than Monument Valley Park, my usual location for such portraits. Palmer Park is named after our city founder and is located pretty much smack in the middle of Colorado Springs, and it's huge. It's a great place for a drive or a hike and there's a fabulous view of the city from its highest point.
After my portrait sitting was finished, I took the scenic way home. This quiet road winds around the back of the park and borders some riding stables. In the summer, the trees form a green canopy overhead and it's lovely. I envy the lucky people who live in this neighborhood!

I love this photo. The black and white gives if a faraway, timeless sense.
I am currently in the middle of a series of images from Palmer Park that I took on Saturday. Even though I've lived here for just over two years, this was only my second walk/hike along their trails... so much more to explore.
We have canopy roads here too, but most of the trees don't lose their leaves and they stay that way all year. This is lovely!
Yes, truly beautiful and peaceful looking.
It’s that time of year again! I’m doing the rounds and apologising for my complete failure to more regularly offer comment on everybody’s incredible efforts for the year. I know how hard it can be to keep up with the daily grind of everyday posting, and want to thank you for your efforts.
I especially want to wish festive greetings for all from down here at [nearly] the end of the world, the bottom of Tasmania.
