I've driven by this old barn before, but today the lighting was pretty dramatic with the thunderstorm popping up behind it. The roof is a unique one for this area. Lovely day in southeastern Wyoming! #abandonedphotography #explorewyoming #abandonedplaces #ThatsWY #purewyoming #wyoming #storm #cheyenneartist #abandonedbarns #barns #thunderstorm #springstorm

Wow! I was just notified that “Winter Lean” won best of show and “The Watering Trough” won first place at the Art on Main show this weekend in Brigham City, Utah. Such an honor and really exciting!!

Came across this very tipsy-looking old garage or shop a few months ago. If you look closely, someone even chained it to the phone pole for support, but the phone pole is leaning too! The shadow really adds to the effect. #wyoming #purewyoming #explorewyoming #ThatsWY #abandonedplaces #abandonedphotography #yoderwyoming

Visited the Gooseberry Badlands for the first time

Visited the Gooseberry Badlands for the first time a couple weeks ago. This moonscape of a landscape is so amazing - so many colors and weird formations. The best part is we were the only ones that took the easy hike. A few people stopped, but didn't venture down into the "pit." It's definitely another great discovery filed under places-I-had-no-idea-were-in-Wyoming! #ThatsWY #cheyenneartist #wyoming #lovewhatyoudo #purewyoming #explorewyoming #hiking #hikingadventure #storm #bighornmountains #bighorns #bighornbasin #worlandwy

New size! I will have Blue-Tipped Danner #2 available in a 16x16 metal print at the Railspur this weekend for Maker’s Market. It’s a beautiful matte finish, ready to hang. Come take it home with you! #wyoming #thatswy #lovewhatyoudo #cheyenneartist

I sure like this old Ford. Must've looked pretty sharp when it came off the showroom floor! #wyoming #abandonedplaces #purewyoming #cheyenneartist #explorewyoming #abandonedphotography #thatswy #lovewhatyoudo #allterrain_transpo #ford #fordtrucks #vintageford #transport_world

Everyone needs an adventure buddy, right? Sometime

Everyone needs an adventure buddy, right? Sometimes it’s your best friend, your spouse, or someone who has a similar interest in discovering new things. I’m lucky to say my adventure buddy is all three. Also he’s pretty hot for a guy in his early 60’s! Thanks, babe for putting up with me in all my moods and forms. I hope we have many more adventures together. ❤️ #explorewyoming #thatswy #wyoming #cheyenneartist #purewyoming #hikingadventure #abandonedplaces #abandonedphotography #gebowyoming #hiking #love #lovewhatyoudo

The smoke from Canada this early in the year is a little disconcerting…but I did pick up some nice colors in last night’s sunset. #cheyenneartist #wyoming #explorewyoming #purewyoming #thatswy #smoke #albertafires

We returned to visit Gebo, Wyoming the other day. We hadn't been there in a few years, and had heard rumors that the buildings had been razed. So glad that wasn't true. We were there about 7:30 in the morning, pretty early; dew still on the grass and not a soul around save a herd of antelope in the clearing below us. I was really taken with this view, I'm not sure why. Something about it stirred me. Hoping that translates through the photo I took. #abandonedplaces #cheyenneartist #thatswy #explorewyoming #wyoming #purewyoming #hikingadventure #abandonedphotography #gebowyoming

Meet "Pretty Boy" Floyd. He lives with his owner, Byron, in Jeffrey City, WY. Both Floyd and Byron live at the old service station in Jeffrey City, which is now a home as well as a potter's studio. Byron throws beautiful cups and bowls with gorgeous natural clay colors all blended together. We enjoyed meeting Byron and Floyd yesterday. If you go through Jeffrey City, make a stop at Monk King Bird Pottery for a friendly chat and maybe a new pottery piece! #thatswy #abandonedplaces #wyoming #explorewyoming #cheyenneartist #purewyoming #petstagram #petsofinstagram #doglife #dogs #doglover #dogoftheday #dogsofinstagram #jeffreycity #jeffreycitywyoming

Thinking back to a great day we had exploring a couple springs ago. I loved the contrast of bright blue, green and red against the steely gray. New and bright against old and plain. Isn’t it a beautiful old sign? #cheyenneartist #coloradogram #allterrain_transpo #abandonedplaces #colorado #studebaker #coloradoabandoned #coloradolife #abandonedphotography

You win some, lose some. Yesterday I received a "not invited" letter to a show, today I received an invite! It's so exciting. This piece, titled "Abandoned Ranch at Night", is headed to Fayetteville, North Carolina for a National Juried Competition titled "At Night: A Photographic Exploration of Light" which will be held at the Ellington-White Contemporary Gallery.

From the call for entry, "Artists are asked to investigate the complexities of night imagery and light sources that play off an object, surface of interior and exterior spaces at night.
The exhibition will have two parts: The five-week physical gallery exhibition and an on-line exhibition. All selected artworks will exhibit on-line for eight weeks. The exhibition juror will select certain works to be exhibited in the gallery."

Gunlock Falls are active! We didn't have time to walk up to the falls themselves, but enjoyed the beauty from afar. #utah #utahisrad #hikingadventure #utahgram #utahunique #utahrocks #hiking #gunlockfalls

I love the geology of the desert. This outcropping is particularly striking with its black volcanic rock and shale. #hiking #hikingadventure #cheyenneartist #utahgram #utahunique #utah #utahisrad #utahrocks
