  • Captured off my deck, looking over the Eastern Plains of Colorado….I thought the song below fit this image to the core…. Brian Setzer-September Skies / September Skies / Funny how that memory / never dies / And when that first leaf falls / Days turn cold, nights grow long / Like an old Sinatra song / And every year right about this time / I wind up here wishing that winds of fate / would bring you back to me / beneath September Skies / I should’ve known better / than to count on the weather / summer’s long gone, still holdin’ on / A fool pretendin’ that love’s never ending / With the first sign of fall, I still recall / September Skies / The autumn melody clouds my eyes / And I’ll never see, why you’re gone / and I dream all alone / Beneath Setember Skies / I should’ve known better / than to count on the weather / summer’s long gone, still holdin’ on / A fool pretendin’ that love’s never ending / With the first sign of fall, I still recall / September Skies / The autumn melody clouds my eyes / And I’ll never see, why you’re gone / and I dream all alone / Beneath September Skies —-—-—-—-—-—-—— See more on my website jdebordphoto.com / All artwork is © John De Bord, All Rights Reserved.

  • Autumn in the Rockies is always special and one thing I just love to do is get out on the backroads and explore….and this is one of those shots from doing just that very thing. Captured in the little town of Riverside, Colorado….I wish this place was mine! / Thoughts welcomed!

  • I couldn’t really think of a title for this shot, I tend to really be bad at doing that and well, the title of this kinda just popped in my head….I was just getting ready to leave Washington Park in Denver, when I happened to glance over and noticed this, and it just sorta caught my eye, the color, the light, the symmetry of the whole scene…so I went ahead and swung my tripod around and shot a few of the scene. Processed in HDR, let me know what ya think! More of my work can be seen on my website at jdebordphoto.com

  • Photographed in morning light at Garden Of The Gods Park in Colorado Springs, Colorado, processed in HDR Thoughts welcomed!

  • Captured in the ghost town of Como, Colorado…..this Horse and many others like him, have had a really hard winter. The town was cut off from supplies for over 6 weeks, and when I was up that way I wanted to make sure the Horses were ok…and to my pleasure they were. / They are working horses, an icon of the American West, ridden by Cowboys and worked everyday. A disappearing icon at that, but one that will forever remain and legend and go down in history. See more on my website at jdebordphoto.com —-John

  • ‘Garden of the Gods’ is a wondrous ‘garden’ just out of downtown Colorado Springs. Known as ‘high desert’ Colorado Springs is nestled at the foot of Pike’s Peak, one of the many 14,000 foot mountains in Colorado. What’s bizarre is the fact this landscape spends most of the winter blanketed by snow, yet when the snow melts, much of it is dry and desert like. Colorado Springs is at around 9000 feet, so the air is clear but thin. This particular rock formation is called ‘The Prayer’ for obvious reasons. It’s an amazing place.

  • I snapped this shot with my point and shoot while on the back of a motorcycle. We were traveling at about 50mph on our way to Boulder, Colorado. I was so surprised when I downloaded the image… It has become my personal favorite. /

  • Captured on the eastern plains of Colorado at sunrise…call me a sucker for a good sky! / —-John

  • It’s been a while since I posted my last fox picture, so I figured I was due. I’m noticing that I have an extensive collection of wildlife either yawning (probably a commentary on my work), sticking out tongues (again, a commentary) , or pooping (hopefully not a commentary). In this case, this fox is yawning. I’m impressed not only by how wide he can open his mouth, but how clean his teeth are (cleaner than my dogs teeth after brushing).

  • Awesome place. Went on a road trip with my brother and his family from Colorado. Beautiful mid west.

  • I know fox are small little guys, but I’m always shocked at how tiny they really are when i have one trot past me on the same trail – they’re tiny little guys!. This one was a little bashful and wouldn’t come out of the brush for me – excuse the twigs and such in the way. Wheatridge, CO

  • Captured high above Cherry Creek Reservoir outside of Denver Colorado, cosidering how cold it was, the warmth of the colors from the sunrise kept me a little on the warm side! The Marina lies empty below, awaiting Spring to return, which isn’t to far off I suppose. Anyways, I kinda lucked out on this shot considering I was standing on a 2 lane road with no pull off’s….thank goodness for no traffic! / —-John

  • Resting on top of the pass at about 11,000ft., you will see Medicine Bow Range and Flattop Mountain.

  • This is the same alpha female from our Bubblers trip to my favorite fox location. It was snowing lightly and she’s still wearing a crown of snow flakes. Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) / Wheat Ridge, CO / Sony Alpha700 / Sigma 300mm f/2.8 / Giottos tripod, Acratech ballhead, Wimberley Sidekick ISO400, 1/250 sec, f/2.8

  • Red fox in the Greenbelt area in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. I went out on Monday morning to see if I could spot any of the foxes that are around there. They are out early, but will be best captured if you can get them in the first morning light, after the sun is up. That brings out the beautiful red color.

  • I know, I know – another fox shot. “Hi, I’m Jay, and I’m a fox addict . . .” If you’ve been following my reports of my little fox world, you’re already familiar with the alpha male, Pock. I have no idea why the locals call him that, but that is his name. He’s easy to identify – he has a fairly light colored coat and a squinty, rheumy left eye. Local rumor has it that he was playing with one of his kits and it accidentally scratched his eye, and it never full recovered. It does seem to give him more trouble in really cold weather. In this shot, you don’t really see the squinty eye. Despite this, for a long period he’s been the alpha male of his little area. Other foxes would defer to him and even jump and run out of his way hen challenged. He’s a bold little guy as well: I’ve seen him hold his own in a confrontation with a coyote at least 3 times his size. He trots down the same trail as me and passes within a few feet of me, and even uses me for shade on bright mornings. I’ve also caught him rooting through my camera bag when my back was turned. There seems to be a shift in the political structure in the fox world, though. The beta male, who has never been as bold, stole food from Pock the other weekend. It was only a few months ago he was running away if Pock gave him a sour look. Pock’s not a youngster anymore, but he’s still very active, and my most commonly spotted fox. We’ll see what happens in the following weeks and months in this little soap opera. Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) / Wheat Ridge, CO / Sony a700 / Sigma 300mm f/2.8 + 1.4TC / Giottos tripod, Acratech ballhead, Wimberley Sidekick ISO640, 1/320sec, f/2.8

  • I know, corny title, but I’m trying to highlight the drama of the little fox community. This is the alpha female (one of the locals calls her “Pock’s wife”). Here where the drama starts (or continues, if you’ve been keeping up the the story so far). Last year, she was the mother of Pock’s (the until-recently alpha male) litter of kits. This season, she was being fed by the beta (well, until recently beta, now possibly alpha) male. Foxes usually don’t share food unless the male is bringing food to the nursing female or the female brings food to the kits when they’re older. You can pretty clearly see evidence that she’s been nursing, and she must have popped out of the den to get a little fresh air. I have some other photos from this series that really demonstrate she’s been nursing (if you know what I mean, and I think you do). Another tough exposure day, with bright sun reflected off snow mixed with deep shadows. This days photos turned out better overall that the day before (too much shooting into the sun and washed out colors), and I do like the cooler blue tone and chiaroscuro lighting on her face. Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) / Wheat Ridge, CO / Sony a700 / Sigma 300mm f/2.8 / Giottos tripod, Acratech ballhead, Wimberley Sidekick ISO200, 1/1600sec, f/5

  • Taken at the Lakewood Historical Center in Lakewood CO. This is an old Fire Truck that is on display there. Thought I would play with the colors a bit in LR. This is exaclty what the fire truck looks like. There is just a bit of Red still showing everything else is grey and blah. I just decided to get rid of the bg color to really make the Red pop!!! / HDR processed in Photomatix then enhanced in LR / Mr Nikon D60 DSLR / /

  • This is an acrylic painting on canvas. 11×14 Also it is my first ‘mountain’ painting. I was attracted to the colors.

  • Colorado River in Grand Canyon after rain. The day before water was blue, after rain is always red. A view of the Marble Canyon and the Colorado River from Navajo Bridge Captured with Nikon D70. Featured in All Countries ~ Wetlands, Ponds, Lakes and Rivers group 04/07/2009

  • Red Rocks State Park ~ near Denver ~ Colorado. / Quite the contrasting scene with some recent fluffy snow clinging to the tree’s and shrubs yet would have blown off and melted from the smooth red rocks..
