MONGOLIA IT IS

Monday, October 10th, 2011

I did a post earlier that asked if I should explore Guillin, China or Mongolia and it seems that Mongolia won fairly handily. I still really want to document Guillin, but Mongolia might be added to the list for 2012.

So far the travel schedule is:

Death Valley, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Israel/Palestine, Cambodia, Iceland, Alaska and now Mongolia. Most are workshops I am teaching, which I should add 5-8 small workshops in Colorado as well, for Fall Colors and Sunflowers and Spring time in RMNP.

2012 will be a good year…

BEHIND THE LENS: Live GPS Tracking

Friday, September 30th, 2011

Want to follow along on my adventures around the world? Not a problem. If you go to my website (www.colbybrownphotography.com) and click on the yellow link at the very top of your screen that says "I am currently in…" you will be taken to a screen that displays my location, via live GPS tracking, when I am out shooting on assignment or teaching a workshop. It works all over the globe, more accurately in some countries rather then others.

I am heading out to shoot in the Colorado Rockies for the next 6 days, starting this morning. This will be the best way to follow along :)

Route 11 in Southern Patagonia

Tuesday, November 16th, 2010

Route 11 in Southern Patagonia - Argentina(click on the photo for a high resolution version)

Just outside of El Calafate, Argentina is the heavily traveled Route 11 highway. This road connects El Calafate with the infamous Perito Moreno Glaciar that is located just 80k outside of the city. As the hub for visitors entering Argentina’s Patagonia, El Calafate usually offers most travelers their first glimpses of the dramatic Patagonian Mountains. As you drive down Route 11, it is amazing to see these dramatic peaks increase in size and beauty.

Camera: Canon 1D Mark IV
Lens: Canon 24-70 2.8L at 25mm
ISO: 250
Exposure: 1/1000 sec at f / 11

This print can be purchased HERE

Sarah Around the World….

Friday, October 30th, 2009

I am incredibly lucky to have such an amazing girlfriend that works as my photography assistant on just about all of the photography jobs and trips I take as a freelance photographer. This post is a dedication to how important she is in my life and how she makes every place I travel to…better.

Keep Close to Nature’s Heart….

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

John Muir once said, ““Keep close to Nature’s heart…and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean.” I think it is easy for most of us to lose that sense of connection with the “wildness” that John Muir so passionately talked about. Life is a complicated and dynamic, always changing and moving in a direction, but sometimes you have to force yourself to stop what you are doing and truly embrace all things nature.

I was born in Berkeley, California in 1982 and although I grew up on the California coast, my truest sense of home has always been in the mountains. Whether it was the Sierra Nevada’s, the Cascades or the Rockies…I have always been able to find my peace with the world when hiking through these granite temples.  A lot of people think that my life is hectic, with all the traveling….all the packing…all the jet lag. But what most people don’t realize is that these trips are meditative to me. Today I leave for a 12 day exploration into Yosemite National Park to walk in the shoes of John Muir…to wash my spirit clean…
