Peak to Peak Colorado

I traveled from Denver, to Central City, Nederland, Estes Park, to Fort Collins, then back down to Boulder, and on to Denver using the Peak to Peak Scenic Byway. The backroads cut through mountains, weave through small western towns, and overall provide a simply breathtaking and beautiful drive. 

"Nature" is what we see—
The Hill—the Afternoon—
Squirrel—Eclipse— the Bumble bee—
Nay—Nature is Heaven—
Nature is what we hear—
The Bobolink—the Sea—
Thunder—the Cricket—
Nay—Nature is Harmony—
Nature is what we know—
Yet have no art to say—
So impotent Our Wisdom is
To her Simplicity.

-Emily Dickinson

I am constantly drawn to and interested in learning more about the art of film.  I decided it would be fun to try my hand at putting together a montage to document my long weekend traversing across central Colorado using videos taken from my iPhone. The music in this is an original song written and performed by two of the friends I stayed with. We sat out on the back porch over a fire pit, listening to song after song late into the night. Brandon and Adam are planning to release an EP later this year and have been booking venues to play in Denver.
