February 2, 2018. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Rocky Mountain National Park, known affectionately as &#8220;Rocky&#8221;, turned 100 years old in 2015. It is one of my favorite places on the planet and a great place to create images. If you head for Rocky in the fall (or any other time of year), check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=20439\">travel and photography guide<\/a> linked below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have no idea how old (or should I say young) my brother and I were when our parents first took us to Rocky, but I have been in love with the place ever since. Every two or three years I go back to Rocky for my annual dose of mountains. Some years I do a fall photography workshop at Rocky. I was there the year Rocky Mountain National Park celebrated its 100 birthday and I bought this ornament as a souvenir. This photo is my second favorite image for this date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Links<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=20584\">Series: Favorite Photos by Date<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c&nbsp;all about this series<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blog.jimdoty.com\/?p=20439\">Colorado Fall Color Travel and Photography Guide<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Christmas ornament on the left is one of my favorites.
