Dereck Larsen is an artist who always has his eyes on the street. Posting under the "6millionstories" moniker, Larsen's photography is a snapshot of life in a bustling city that's often overlooked for the mountains around it. For a glimpse into the daily life of Denver's average citizens, 6millionstories is always a good bet. Natives can also have fun trying to figure out how in the heck he manages to get to the top of so many buildings and whatever possesses him to dangle his feet over the edge.

Brandon Tormanen is a Denver transplant who's never quite gotten over the awe that our natural surroundings can inspire. While his urban work is certainly something to be enjoyed, it's his nature photography that will stop and make you take notice. His vistas are simply stunning, as he preserves the gentle majesty of nature by providing photographs that are never heavily edited or manipulated. Nature has the best paintbrush, and cleary Tormanen understands that.

Colorado Sunshine is a treat for anyone who's interested in unique color experiments. Primary contributor Ashley Engler searches the city for the most exciting architecture (and there's plenty of options to choose from) and, boy, does she deliver. She then funnels these semi-abstract works of art through a unique color palette that transforms the Mile High City into a pastel wonderland. Denver as a giant, colorful playground … it's a beautiful idea and a masterful execution.

Denver photographer Blake Jackson — who posts to Instagram as Jake Blackson — sees the world in robust, ominous colors. For a city that's too often bathed in bright colors, Jackson's use of earth tones and deep colors is as unique as it is beautiful. Every shape and every color in Jackson's photography carries a weight with it that will have his images bouncing around your brain for hours afterwards. For an inimitable voice taking one-of-a-kind urban photographs, you're going to want to seek this dude out.
