Beaver Creek
i’m such a kid sometimes
From Russia With Love ..
KGB secrets…
Had an amazing time in Colorado! 
Hiking…
Beware of a certain Russian spy On the Hanging Lake Trail..
This view was well worth the 3 hour hike ( to & back ) The Hanging Lake
Ice Skating in Beaver Creek, Having delicious s’mores 
& hot chocolate with baileys by crackling sounds of fireplace, having fun with amazing people, then hiking some more…
The air in Colorado is unreal ! Could just stand there and breathe it … forever ! I wish I could just take it with me.. ( Beaver Creek )
The Hanging Lake
By The Spouting Rock …. ice, ice, baby ..
Usually you get to see only water or ice here. I was lucky that day to capture both at the same time…
freezing time by capturing moments & stunning nature… 
… this is what i saw …
driving through 5 states and back, laughing, negotiating a better amount on a speeding ticket, being embraced by the breathtaking sky full of shimmering stars and sharing all of it with the one I love. ( can’t post his picture … he works for CIA … all I can say is he’s name is …. Mr. Bond… : ) Oh, almost forgot … skinny dipped in the snow …
Vail
I like to hike off the beaten path & create my own trails .. ( Beaver Creek )

This little girl was crying, she didn’t want to ski … and I couldn’t just walk by … I came up closer and started talking to her. I asked if I could take pictures of her cause I think she was very good… she agreed … wiped her tears and smiled for the camera… I asked her to teach me skiing since I’m not very good, so she began explaining to me how to do it.. while slowly making her way downhill to the rest of the group of kids in Vail… this time she did it with a big smile on her face for the camera .. Thank you Camilla, for teaching me how to ski & how to not give up … I am now perfecting the “pizza” move : )
Stubborn mountain rams stick together ..
Love to visit small beautiful towns, but could never live in one for too long… even if it’s a nice resort like this one..
Blue Bird, Blue Sky & his Blue Eyes …
breathe & be
what shuttle?! I’m European … we love to walk ..
Stayed at the lovely PINES LODGE IN BEAVER CREEK
self-portrait turned out to be “ghost like” with 2 different expressions at the same time… the magic of photography.. : )
Here’s a toast to a fantastic 2012!
sorry honey, but I think it’s a checkmate .. hope I didn’t hurt your ego too much .. : )
back to LA …
Just Gorgeous! You look like Nikita! Told my husband that this is now added to the list of places he must take me…thanks for the inspiration.
Hilarious and gorgeous pictures. Colorado is great.
Love the range of experiences and images.
El, thanks for the fun.
Lived/played most of my life in Colorado. It is my favorite state in the U.S. So many diverse places to visit.
Not enough time for 1 week vacationers. Love snow when someone else is shoveling or grooming it.
Cheers from Baja.
Great shots. For someone like me who can’t afford to travel, these photos takes me there. Thanks.

Great photography, felt like I could have been there.
These photos are beautiful. Thanks for the positive feedback on my new blog. If you’d like to contibute to my project, as I get it off the ground, that would be awesome! Just writing a short letter to an old house that you grew up in, maybe with a drawing of the house. Or a few words with a photo of what the house looked like when you lived there. You don’t have to mail it to the house, but that would be neat too. Also, if you’re really interested in the project it would be awesome if you could encourage others to get involved and write or draw submissions for the site. If you’re not interested, that’s totally fine too. There’s more info about it on this page, incase you missed it: http://dearoldhouse.wordpress.com/about Once again, thanks for the feedback.
Also, congratulations on the new citizenship! I’m very happy that you stumbled across my site, as it has led to me discovering yours. You are simply amazing. <3
