Wooden bridge in Vail
I was walking around Vail, CO early on a Sunday morning. I like that time of day because in tourist spots like Vail, most tourists are still asleep, so I get the dual benefits of nice morning light and no folks in my way. It was my first time there, and I really had no idea what to expect, but I ended up spending the entire morning in Vail because I liked it so much. It's a great little town and has that alpine village feel and since it was a couple of weeks before Christmas, everything was so...Christmasy. Anyways, at one point I wandered upon this wooden bridge and knew it was something that I wanted to photograph. Afterwards, I spent some time in the stream below taking a bunch of other shots, and then found a tea shop and warmed up with some English Breakfast tea (my fave!). It was an awesome way to spend a morning!
