"BARE BONES" - Denver, CO

Shot in the high country just outside of Denver, Colorado, this image captures a moment of alpine stillness layered with movement. A wind gust sends snow swirling off the granite cliffs, while a barren tree—stripped and scarred—stands firm in the foreground. There’s a quiet defiance to it. Nature doing what it does best: enduring, shifting, reminding you who’s in charge. This is high elevation grit—frozen, raw, and beautiful.
