Meet The Reynold's Family

I love the contrast of the green foreground and the red bushes. I cross processed this image to give it a little color & contrast snap. I nailed this one within 5 minutes, that seems to happen to me allot :D

What a doll!

Blogging...what's that?

Holy did I forget to blog or what?? I have been such a blog slacker! I guess I've been too busy to put some pix up of, the thousands I've shot since my last post. Oh well, that's being busy as a bee :D

Mount Timpanogos at sunset

So this evening when I was taking out the trash and doing a little house cleaning, I looked up at Mount Timpanogos and saw the awesome lighting with the fresh white snow against the fall leaves and decided to pull out the ladder and shoot from my roof top. I'm not a big fan of heights but a roof top I can do. Every once and a while I shoot from the roof top, but I will probably do this more often :)

The lighting was great when I got up there and the clouds were so dramatic. As I waited for the color to come on I just took in the awesome 360 view. I'm trying to stop here and there more often, instead of barreling through my whole life and regretting not doing so.
There's a term we photographers use called alpen glow. This is the type of light we get when the sun dips below the horizon. Most people think your best shots are only at sunset, but that's not necessarily true. The color usually lights up the entire sky and for about 2 minutes, tops, the sunlight blankets the mountains. The lighting was more dramatic with the direct sunlight on the mountains this evening. But the bottom lines is we live in an absolutely beautiful state and country. What more can I say!?

I love the contrast of fall color, blue sky and white snow ^

Watching this happen right in front of my eyes is an amazing sight! I get soo excited that I feel like a little kid :) Photo of the day ^

Provo Canyon photograph on KSL 5 news

To my surprise, my photograph made the news tonight following the Eagles vs. Bears game. I shot this image on my way to a reception yesterday. I was ahead of schedule so I took full advantage of our beautiful state and God's amazing creations. The changing aspens and yellows are just around the corner. They are real strong in Park City right now.
