An Open Invitation

My invitation for you to our show.

My Digital Photography Class is doing a fine art show. Typically this would be  a 3 month thing, but the place the class did it last semester worked out so well that the art department swooped in and reserved it for the next 6 months. So instead we are showing one night only at the Repartee Gallery at University Mall. I have 7 images in the show, but some of the other folks in the class are extremely talented. If you are available the evening of December 12 you ought to come check it out.

Payson Utah Temple

Just for fun I have made a rendering of what the Payson Utah Temple will look like. Ground was broken for it just 2.5 weeks ago, but off the couple of images the church has released, This One:


 And This One:

Playing with HDR

In my Photography and Compsiting 2 class we have been playing with advanced HDR and Panorama Options. We have been ranging from the photorealistic all the way down into the surrealistic. Check out some samples.

Alpine Loop1

Alpine Loop2

Alpine Loop3 - This one was interesting. We set up the tripod and marked its location with rocks. I took the Panorama, then I came back that night and took the panorama again to get the stars. Lesson Learned from this: Never play Jazz in the Canyon at night. You will attrack Elk. I left before it actually reached me, because Amorous or Angry, I did not want to find out.

Adventures in InDesign

I am taking a personal finance class this semester. One of our assignments is to create a financial roadmap and make it look good. As I am also learning publishing software, I decided to do the whole thing in InDesign. Here I present to you the section pages I have completed so far. As teh page layouts usually have sensitive information, I will not be showing many if any of those.

The Roadmap portion of the title made me think route 66, and it all kind of snowballed into a 57 chevy theme from there. Most of the center images are not mine, as I did not have the time to actually sit doen and make some.
