  • This is a view of Temple Square at Christmas-time from the Founders Room on the 18th Floor of the Zions Bank Building where I work. After publishing this picture, someone said that the big tree with the red lights in the lower right of the picture is a Cedar of Lebanon and that it is only lit up every other year.<br />
The sun had just set and the western sky was still a bit blue. I love all the colors in this shot. I put the wide angle attachment on the lens to capture as much of Temple Square as I could.

  • Buildings of New York City as seen from the Empire State Building
  • A view of the Empire State Building from the ground. Aaron Barlow, his son Sam and I had just finished taking a tour of the Empire State Building and were walking to the next site to see. Aaron looked up and said, "Wow, that's quite a site". So I looked where he was looking and this is what I saw.

  • This is an HDR image of the LDS Oquirrh Mountain Temple in the Salt Lake Valley. My daughter-in-law suggested to me that I submit some of my photos of LDS temples to a photo contest that was being sponsored by LDS Living and Deseret Book. The contest was to find photos for a 2014 calendar. This is one of the photos that I submitted, and it was selected to be the photo for October.<br />
I woke up at 4:30am to be able to have time to drive over to get some photos of this temple with the full moon behind it. I pulled into a subdivision that is currently under construction, got out of my truck, setup my tripod and camera and started taking some shots. As I was standing there, another car pulled in next to me and just sat there. The driver never got out or said anything to me. But I noticed that he was wearing a bright orange shirt, like the kind some construction workers wear. I'm sure he was there to see if I was stealing anything from the construction site.
