On Monday last week, I started my summer internship with the Denver Post, and so far it’s been a blast. The newsroom staff is not only top-notch, but they are also amazing folks – the kind of people you want to hang out with for a beer after work. I feel like I’ve learned a lot already, and I’m excited to work here for the next two-and-a-half months and shoot as much as I can. Here are some of the pictures I took during my first week. I’ll keep posting my work for the Post here, so check back again soon!

They are each going to ride a leg of the Ride the Rockies bike race in honor of their brother David, who was killed in a hit-and-run accident about a month ago while he was riding his bike. "We'll just be thinking of Dave and of God and ask him to help us through this," Mike Pickett said about the race.
Sarah Gurski, 26, of Colorado Springs, waits for the ride home at the Elitch Gardens bus station Friday afternoon, June 10, 2011. Gurski came to Denver to visit the theme and water park. "I like the rides, the roller coasters," she said. "Next time I come I want to go to the water recreation they have."
