Boulder Creek Festival

Boulder Creek Festival at night, Boulder, Colorado.

After a little inspiration thanks to the Aurora multimedia workshop, fellow Boulder photographers Cary Jobe, Robin Puro and I staked out the Boulder Creek Festival from a parking lot in downtown Boulder, Colorado. It was the culmination of a four-year desire to shoot photos of the Creek Festival at night—a two-day window I’ve always missed. The photos weren’t as awesome as I’d hoped, but I came away with a couple interesting images. Once I got past the disappointment of not getting what I initially wanted, it was easier to be creative.
