A lovely book, full of surprises.  And, a wonderful sense of discovery. Steelman’s photographs are outstanding, lushly composed and intricately interesting. The view through his viewfinder  clearly depicts Steelman’s long-time love affair with Colorado, its wildlife and scenery. He captures moments that make you ask, “How did he do that?”

Yet, he did, and the closer you look, the more you will see. Like the snowshoe hare mid-way through its seasonal change—part brown, part white. Did you ever see that? Or, looking closely at a peaceful meadow, you realize the bits of color you see aren’t flowers, but the spots on a new-born fawn.

Steelman also takes you places you’ve never been, maybe never even heard about. Picketwire Canyon, Coffee  Pot Spring—do you know where they are? Steelman does, and if you can’t make the trip in person, his camera will take you there.

Steelman reveals the mysteries, moments and magic that is Colorado. This is a book you will enjoy time and again—always finding yet one more surprise ....
