By the Fire

Sitting around the campfire on a snow campout with the Boy Scouts last month up at Hyak, just east of Snoqualmie Pass.

Snow & Fog

I drove by Green Valley on I-18 and had to turn around and come back to capture this beautiful combination of snow and fog...

Old Rainier

While my wonderful niece, Bethany, stayed with us for a day last week, we went out about the town to find some good photos for her photography class back in Utah. This is one she took that I doctored up a bit in PSE...

Flame Flake

In our family, we have a tradition of cutting snowflakes for the holidays -- lots and lots of snowflakes. The fam knows how much I love this, and my kids have been known to ask me why I always have to take so much time to make them perfect. What can I say? I take my snowflakes seriously. ;-) Here's one from last week...

Strange L.O. Fog

I created this interesting effect while on my daily walk to work in January of 2005 in Lake Oswego, Oregon. Try it--just breathe on your lense before taking your photo. :)

Here's another one...

Tubing Day

Every year, the BYU MBA program rents out Soldier Hollow (i.e., where the 2002 Olympics x-country ski event was held) for a tubing day for students, faculty, staff, friends and family. What a blast! I regret not going last year.

The Photographer

My oldest son--a budding photographer! :)

Rock Canyon Sunset

When the sun goes down in Provo, it illuminates the mountains and canyons with bright, brilliant oranges and pinks. I caught this on my walk home Wednesday night.

Which crop do you think is most interesting??? Let me know with your comments!

Timpanogos in Clouds

On my walk home, I pass one of the best views of Timpanogos and often see some beautiful scenes...

Sweet Cheeks

My third son enjoying some play time outside after one of the snow storms of winter 2006. Nothing like rosy baby cheeks and bright blue eyes! :)

Squaw Peak in Clouds

One of the long winter days in Provo last month (January 2007)... They made for beautiful shots of the mountains above BYU.
